Looks like the “Boston date” for this really excellent lineup<\/em> is either Providence, Rhode Island (about an hour’s drive) or Hartford, Connecticut (about 2, but an easy drive via Mass Pike and I-84). Being how jam-packed this autumn is with bands coming through the area, I’m guessing it was a scheduling difficulty rather than an oversight that led to this sad state of affairs. If you can somehow make it, or find yourself in a place they’re performing (see entire schedule<\/a>), it should be a fantastic show. <\/p>\n

Silversun Pickups<\/h4>\n

A marvelous band from L.A.’s much-beloved Silver Lake scene (well, much-beloved by me<\/em>, in any case), Silversun Pickups have been performing together since around 2005, when their debut EP, Pikul<\/em>, was released. Their debut full-length album, Carnavas<\/em>, came out in 2006, with two singles – “Lazy Eye” and “Well Thought Out Twinkles” – making it to Billboard’s Top 10 Modern Rock Tracks. Earlier this year was the follow-up, Swoon<\/a><\/em> (Dangerbird Records<\/a>), which has received a lot of airplay on the alternative stations. Influences include My Bloody Valentine, the Velvet Underground, Elliott Smith, Sonic Youth, Sweet, Modest Mouse, and Secret Machines.<\/p>\n

Silversun Pickups are: Brian Aubert – guitar\/lead vocals, Nikki Monninger – bass\/vocals, Christopher Guanlao – drums, and Joseph Lester – keyboards\/samples\/sound manipulation.<\/p>\n

Cage The Elephant<\/h4>\n

I had the pleasure of seeing these guys in Providence over the summer, and I can tell you, they put on a fantastic show. From Bowling Green, Kentucky, Matt Shultz (vocals), Brad Shultz (guitar), Jared Champion (drums, percussion), Daniel Tichenor (bass, vocals), and Lincoln Parish (lead guitar) deliver a Southern-tinged rootsy\/funky punk sound, with Matt ricocheting around on and off the stage; he’s pretty amazing to watch. Literate lyrics; high-energy punk attitude. Nice bit of dobro on their big hit “Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked”.<\/p>\n

An Horse<\/h4>\n

I wasn’t familiar with these guys at all, but I very much like what I’m hearing. An Horse is the Brisbane, Australian duo of Kate Cooper and Damon Cox. Originally both managers at a Brisbane indie record store, they started performing together in July 2007, soon building a fan base and opening up for Tegan and Sara and Death Cab for Cutie. Their debut album is Rearrange Beds<\/em>.<\/p>\n
