Are you an art bitch? Please don't take offense. It's a title to a Cansei de Ser Sexy song. If you wear your art bitchiness with pride, you're not alone -- the members of CSS are art bitches, too! On June 6, you can dance with other artists and sweaty, electro-disco lovers when the Brazilian musicians grind and jump at the Beaumont.

CSS' tour supports the release of the band's new album, La Liberacion, that's being released on V2 Music/Cooperative Music (thanks, Pitchfork and Under the Radar).

Here's a video of CSS performing "Alala." Even if you hate this, you must admit the show will most likely be entertaining.
