Review | The Barr Brothers at the Lizard Lounge

Barr Brothers – “Beggar In The Morning” by indiemusicfilter Montreal-based quartet The Barr Brothers played a set Tuesday evening that was perfectly suited for the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge. Small round tables lined the edge of the stage, and The Barr Brothers – featuring Brad Barr on guitar and vocals, Andrew Barr on drums and guitar, Sarah Page on the harp and Andres Vial on just about everything else – played for almost an hour and a half. Their sound, which is somewhere between folk, bluegrass and rock, is made unique by the addition of the harp. Because of the…

Tonight | The Barr Brothers at the Lizard Lounge

Barr Brothers – “Beggar In The Morning” by indiemusicfilter The Barr Brothers, a quartet from Montreal, are playing at the Lizard Lounge tonight. Fronted by Brad Barr and his brother Andrew Barr, their meandering folk sound is aided by Sarah Page’s harp and Andres Vial who plays keyboards and bass. The stories of how the brothers ended up in Montreal and how they met harpist Page are as entertaining as their thoughtful songs. For Brad Barr, Montreal had an affect on him. Though originally from Providence, RI, and having lived in Boston, the brothers were traveling with their first band,…

Tonight | Doug Paisley at Club Passim

Doug Paisley ft. Leslie Feist – Don’t Make Me Wait There was a time, not too long ago, when I had never heard of Daytrotter. I try not to think about it too much. But these days, the mastermind behind Daytrotter, Sean Moeller knows his music. When he tweets about a band, people, and I, listen. So back in January, when Sean tweeted that he was loving Doug Paisley, it got my attention. But when my favorite band Dawes tweeted back that they loved Paisley’s last album Constant Companion, I knew I had to listen to it. Immediately. Paisley, hailing…

Show | Hey Rosetta! – Great Scott Tonight!

Yer Spring Bandages Tonight, Canadian orchestral indie rock band Hey Rosetta will be playing in our fine city.  Expect massive compositions of strings, vocal harmonies and energetic music that will lift our night with giant sized music. I’ve been a big fan of these guys for a few years now Hey Rosetta has a knack for writing and performing songs that have a certain arc to them.  Their structures tend to be a mild and mello beginning verses building with intensity and ultimately bigger chorus’ leading to epically proportioned bridge.  This simple arc, makes me believe they will be one fantastic…

David Vandervelde hits Great Scott Tonight!

More Than You Can Feel Wave Country David Vandervelde hits the stage tonight here in Boston, and it promises to be a great night of music. If you’ve been following Vandervelde at all, which you should, he’s put out two fantastic albums, The Moonstation House Band and Waiting for the Sunrise, as well as an EP (Summer Hits).  I’ve been looking forward to getting to see him perform his music for a long while now, and he finally makes his way to Boston tonight. His music is highly influenced in T-Rex (Marc Bolan) and his Neil Youngian like slow burner of a…
