Luckily, we got a sneak peek at a few new Ages and Ages tracks in our very own CPR Performance Studio this week.

The band was in great spirits during their three-song set, and chatted enthusiastically with Keefer about Barack Obama using one of their songs on his campaign trail, the "divisionary" theme of the new album, and their highlights of SXSW ("We ate a homeless person," quipped singer Tim Perry).
