Formed at Princeton University in 2005, Miracles of Modern Science (MOMS) is a goofy, Brooklyn based chamber rock band that keeps it simple. Choosing to forgo electric guitas hasn’t prevented them from creating some fresh tunes - or maybe contributed to that, you, guitar obsessed masses! The band members stick with violin, cello, mandolin, drums and double bass, played by front man, Evan Younger. Having just released their newest LP, “Mean Dreams”, MOMS will be playing a release show on August 14th, at Mercury Lounge. To get a taste of their music check out their music video “Swipe”, a homage to Tinder, featuring brooklyn vocalist Kristin Slipp. -Lauren Schechter
