Who’s playing this week. We listen to almost every band playing and pick our favorites. Hopefully you agree.
Stripped-down semi-acoustic performances from some of the best bands from Boston and beyond.
Live and in the wild. Hear bands the way they were supposed to be heard. Loud, live, and in person.
Ever wonder why we’ve been a bit sporadic with the shows lately? Now you get to find out why! Lots of great tunes this week. Featuring Blitzen Trapper, Fleet Foxes, Glorytellers, Girls Guns and Glory, Teenage Prayers, Wussy, Faces on Film, The Beau Roland Band, Tulsa, Antiques, Gunfight, Tracy Morrow and the Magi Chippie, Beach House, Howlin’ Rain, and Papercuts.
Angly, funky, eminently danceable. From NYC, Jupiter One is one of those bands that I’m surprised I haven’t gotten sick of hearing everywhere. I suppose that’s a good thing. Give it time. And just to further blow your mind, lead singer/guitarist K actually sings while playing a violin on the first track. Listen to it and tell me how that’s even possible. They are playing at Tommy Doyle’s in Harvard Square this Saturday - you know, the former House of Blues. And it’s only two bucks!
Song List:
I was having camera problems that day. I actually got it straightened out and ended up with some perfectly clear photos. But really, this is much more interesting - and I think it better represents the swirly, layered sound of Guillermo Sexo. Dig it. They’re at the Middle East this Sunday!
Song List:
Two guys that manage to make more noise with an acoustic guitar and a mini drumkit than your average nuclear test. But look past the bombast and you’ll hear that it is a precision-guided bombing campaign. Scalpel-sharp beats and breaks combined with a guitar style that somehow sounds like 3 playing at once makes for a strange trip indeedily.
They’re having a Love-In at PA’s Lounge on Friday and Sunday, March 14th! (Ignore what we said about the 16th - we were way off.)
