Dappled Cities



I absolutely love being thrilled by opening bands that I know nothing about.This was the case last week when I was working the Fratellis show. The first band on that night was Dappled Cities and they really brought it. Their are a pretty straight forward jangley, indie-rock band with dashes of Grizzly Bear-esque falsetto thrown in. The Aussie boys latest record "Granddance" on Dangerbird records last year, and while it doesn't exactly blow me away from start to finish, there are some real gems in it, starting with Holy Chord.

*edit* The band stopped by the Current Studios to play some songs and chat.
