Next week, on Tuesday the 12th, Baltimore's Wye Oak returns to town for a headline show at the Middle East in support of their stunning new album, "Civilian". The duo was last in Boston in late-January for a two-night stand opening up for the Decemberists, where they no doubt cultivated a new crop of fans at the sold-out House of Blues. I caught one of those sets, the second time I've seen Jenn & Andy in a venue that large, and was again left wondering how the hell two people can combine to create a sound moody and massive enough to fill such spaces. It's some kind of magic. [MP3] Wye Oak - "Civilian" My only complaint about that night was, of course, the too-short set that an opening slot demands, so I'm thrilled they're back for a show of their own so soon. Wanna go? Of course you do. I've got a pair of guest list spots to hand out, and entering is easy: Fire off a quick email to giveaways [at] bradleysalmanac [dot] com titled "WYE OAK!" and include your full name. Make sure it hits my inbox by Noon this Friday, April 8th, when I'll pick a random winner and send them the good news - that they'll be on the Middle East guest list with a +1 for Tuesday night's Wye Oak / Callers / Jaggery show. Look for me near the front. |
