The names Matt Johnson and Kim Schifino may not mean much to anyone. But if you drop their last names, you get one of the most danceable groups in all of Christendom. Matt and Kim have been gathering a significant following ever since their self-titled 2006 album which featured the infectious hit Yea Yeah.On Tuesday the couple released their follow-up Grand from which I have plucked my song of the week. Lessons Learned is another simple arrangement by the duo with nothing but drums, keyboards and some half-yelling by Matt. Maybe it's that simplicity, the feeling that you could probably play these songs yourself, that makes Matt and Kim so much fun to listen to. If you're unfamiliar with these Brooklynites but you love a good indie-dance tune, have a listen to Lessons Learned.
