So many shows this month, especially this weekend! Here are my recommendations:
String of Pearls w/ Hinkley
Abilene Bar and Lounge
Friday 11/13
6:00pm
free
Hinkley is an indie-folk rock band from Rochester. The band’s influences run deep in traditional American music but are often likened to contemporary independent artists such as The Shins, Sparklehorse and Wilco.
Anberlin w/ The Sunstreak and Nocturnal Me
The Club at Water Street
Saturday 11/14
8:00pm
$13 adv / $15 dos
Anberlin is a Tooth and Nail-turned-Universal band from Orlando. Their first cd, Blueprints for the Black Market, got me hooked. Their music is catchy and poppy, and the singer’s voice will amaze you.
The Sunstreak is a Rochester rock-pop band who has been busy touring on the Warped Tour and with bands like Saves the Day, Underoath, and Hellogoodbye for the past four years.
