Three shows this weekend

Anticon. recording artist, BATHS will be on tour with Montreal’s BRAIDS. Releasing Cerulean this past July, BATHS is touted as “a hail of lush melodies, ghostly choirs, playful instrumentation and stuttering beats.” The hard to describe quartet, BRAIDS, is best summed up as having “an unusually collaborative dynamic, generating all of their sweeping sounds live in a synergistic maelstrom (evoking) a feeling of something continuous and progressive, yet lush and intertwining.” Braids debut, Native Speaker (kanine) is due Jan. 18th, 2011. Manchester, UK act, Star Slinger will be supporting.

The sweet-ass independent record/management label, Sargent House, home to many great acts such as Fang Island, Red Sparrowes, Russian Circles and Tera Melos, have another awesome “must-see-live” band coming through town . . . NATIVE.

Residents of Indiana, NATIVE, reminds me of the defunct These Arms Are Snakes. Touring on their new album, Wrestling Moves, this will probably be their last ’small diy show’ for a while as NATIVE have come through North Texas a few times over the past two years.
