Every want to hear the Ezra Koenig/Wes Miles tracks from highschool?
Well, while doing some googling for FuckYeahWesMiles I found that they were involved in about fifteen projects together back in their Glen Ridge, NJ days. Add Dan Millar and Andrei Padlowski, and you’ve got the Sophisticuffs, with Wes on bass and keyboard and Ezra on vocals and other instruments. While I do realize that most Contras HAVE heard “Oh No (Oh Yes)” the tracking on The Sophisticuffs A Midnight Snack CD includes 9 other tracks
- The Sophisticuffs - Oh No (Oh Yes) (04:21)
- The Sophisticuffs - Becca Jo (03:40)
- The Sophisticuffs - DJX Symphony (01:19)
- The Sophisticuffs - Ezra’s English Project (Red Badge of Courage) (03:24)
- The Sophisticuffs - Fall at Trafalgar (02:04)
- The Sophisticuffs - Don’t Go (03:11)
- The Sophisticuffs - Black Ezra Death Song (07:31)
- The Sophisticuffs - I Think-You Know (03:13)
- The Sophisticuffs - John Barleycorn (02:52)
- The Sophisticuffs - Rock Opera (Hello Professor) (06:47)
These are links that I found while looking for the tracks:

I’ve also emailed someone who has a physical copy of the CD and begged for them to upload the tracks. If you have the tracks or would know where to find them, SEND ME A MESSAGE, and we can share the magic of Wes and Ezra
