The Police raided and closed down the party that French Horn Rebellion were playing in New York on Saturday night (20/2).
The Brooklyn based brothers were playing 'Bang On!' at the Living Theatre on Clinton Street in the Lower East Side and about to play their last track when the police raided the venue and closed it down.
When asked what happened Robert from FHR said:
“Well, we were just doing our set, and all of a sudden the owner of the space came up to us and was like “stop the music… Stop the music now!!” And we were like, “why??” And he was like “cuz the police are here and they're shutting this party down!” Everyone was begging for another song, but we were like “sorry the police shut us down, nothing we can do!!!”
