TUESDAY: IN ONE WIND w/ THE SULTANA
Brooklyn 5-piece In One Wind have a sound they describe as “Folk/Indie Rock/Experimental,” and if you check out their bandcamp page, you can tell that this is pretty much fact. This Tuesday they are fittingly paired with locals The Sultana. Let your indie freak flag fly.

SATURDAY: PLANTS & ANIMALS w/ THIS IS THE KIT
We’ve streamed their album. We’ve given you a free MP3. Now the show is finally here! Come to the Hi-Tone on Saturday to hear Plants & Animals, whose sound has been described by one BTJ writer as “hypnotic blast of indie-pop nostalgia highlighted by mulitple layers of expertly executed ear candy.” Yeah!
