Sometimes, if not ALL the time, it pays to follow your favorite labels through their blogs, websites, or in this case … tumblr. That’s right folks .. if it weren’t for constantly checking the updates of the Sargent House tumblr, I would have never stumbled across this live footage of  Good Old War performing their track “Coney Island” for Fearless TV.
