A Saratoga-based local act has been once again name-checked and singled out by national media.

Phantogram, who have had a huge 2011 thus far with an appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and being regularly featured on MTV’s American adaptation of “Skins,” have been name-dropped by NPR.

Check out the full list

Phantogram is one of many local artists playing the four-day SXSW festival in Austin, which goes down March 11th through the 20th.

Television doesn’t do their live performances justice, and while I like the track they played, there are even better ones on their debut LP “Eyelind Movies,” which you can purchase on iTunes and Amazon.

Hey folks!

As a reminder, tonight the band Phantogram will play live on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. So stay up late and/or set your DVRs.

Despite all the buzz around them for several years (going back to when they were known as Charlie Everywhere), I just saw the band live for the first time this past Saturday at WEXT‘s Exit Dome 4.

They were amazing. I rushed out and bought their LP towards the end of their set, and fell in love with them.

If Phantogram were a cult, I’d have given them all my money by now.

The duo is originally from Saratoga Springs, and is poised to be launched into the stratosphere with the buzz this performance is sure to generate.

Don’t miss out.

Late Night with Jimmy Fallon airs on NBC (local affiliate WNYT) at 12:38am EST.
