- Snippet of video from "Reject" jam on instagram HERE
- Show preview from The New Yorker:
"Saratoga Springs is best known for horse-racing facilities, but it’s also home to this charmingly understated rock band of nearly thirty years. The Figgs survived a two-year stint on Capitol Records in the mid-nineties, and have since built an extensive catalogue—ironically, their most streamed song today is “Je T’Adore,” an English and French jam, released in 2004, that was featured in a Lexus ad. At shows, the band is known to perform medleys of specific albums, often packing in three or four songs to a suite, a practice that speaks to its dense repertoire and nimble, inventive playing."
