Evan and Brette Marie Way of The Parson Red Heads<\/p><\/div>\n

In addition to being greatly impressed with the musical prowess of Alela Diane<\/a> and her band Wild Divine, I was also greatly impressed with her fans. Going out to a club to see a singer-songwriter, folk band, or similarly delicate and nuanced music can be a dicey proposition. That it was The Parson Red Heads<\/a>‘ first ever Boston appearance gave me even more anxiety. I wanted it to be special. I wanted to be able to actually hear them<\/em>. To my surprise and great pleasure, the crowd was quiet and attentive during the Parsons’ set, despite the fact that few had ever heard of them. They repaid the favor by treating us to a beautiful, heartfelt set of songs with strong focus on their upcoming album. <\/p>\n
