It seems that as of late, everyone has been talking about the boy-girl duo Wye Oak. The Baltimore pair will play at the Middle East Upstairs Tuesday April 13 with Callers and Jaggery opening.
Wye Oak released their third full-length album Civilian in early March and came out of SXSW with a swarm of praise, from new and old fans alike. Their sound, which consists of Jenn Wasner on guitar and vocals and Andy Stack on drums and keyboard, is full of floating vocals, volume explosions and thumping bass lines and is both haunting and dreamy.

Opening for Wye Oak is the Brooklyn-based band Callers, and they’re definitely worth showing up early for. First meeting in New Orleans and then relocating to Brooklyn, by way of Providence, Callers’ sound is all encompassing. A bit bluesy, a bit folksy, and a bit jazzy, the trio’s pop-rock sound is held together by Sara Lucas’ soaring voice.
Boston-based art-rock collective Jaggery will start off the evening.
Doors at 8, tickets are $10.
