This past Tuesday night at The Sinclair, fans of Matt Pond PA were given a chance to revel in an album that left a mark on them a decade ago. Kicking off a tour commemorating the 10th (holy crap) anniversary of Several Arrows Later, Pond and bandmates played the much beloved album in it’s entirety. While the set was light on banter, it was heavy on pleasing the folks who trekked out on that rainy night to reacquaint themselves with the songs that, judging by their reaction, mean a whole lot to them.

Pond is also on the verge of releasing a brand new album for fans to fall for. Look for The State of Gold June 30th on Doghouse records.

Joining Pond on the entire tour are Mississippi-based hair-swinging rockers Young Buffalo who are touring behind their third studio album entitled House which just dropped last month.

Opening the show were local newcomers Long Time who certainly played with the most edge of the three bands that evening. With that dynamic performance, I’d venture to say they grabbed a few new fans who were originally attracted to the indie rawness of Pond’s earlier work.

Check the photos below and get out and see all these bands for yourself. I still haven’t figured out how to get photos to play music…
