In our continued effort to let you know when the local kids make a splash on a bigger canvas, we have some very exciting news for Hello Tokyo fans out there. Not only were they featured in last month’s Three Stars, but tonight marks the debut of Horse Power, a new series on Animal Planet. What in the heck does this have to do with Hello Tokyo, you ask? You see, their song, “Radio,” has been chosen as the show’s theme song! And other Hello Tokyo ditties will provide the soundtrack for the rest of the show. Congratulations, Hello Tokyo! You’re one programming tier away from joining the ranks of the Phantom Planets, Remy Zeros and Dandy Warholses of the world.

If you don’t have cable or Tivo, then might we suggest that you mosey on over to the Black Cat and catch The Hold Steady? Before you go, be sure to let the DCeiver fully prepare you for the event.
