Video: Adam Green & Binki Shapiro – Just To Make Me Feel Good

If the names Adam Green & Binki Shapiro sound familiar, it’s likely that you know them from their previous work. Green was a member of the much beloved anti-folk band The Moldy Peaches, while Shapiro lent her vocal talents to Little Joy, the tropical-influenced Strokes side-project.
