Columbia concerts: Great Good Fine OK, Midland, Italian Soda
Great Good Fine Ok
Brooklyn synthpop duo Jon Sandler and Luke Moellman bring their dreamy dance tracks to Columbia. The band has collaborated with acts like The Chainsmokers and St. Lucia, and their original songs are high-energy and fun. Just watch the video for their single, “Take It Or Leave It,” in which five dancers break it down on the Santa Monica pier, and try not to smile.
