Villanelles Play on Rooftop!

OK, Villanelles are not playing on any rooftops that I know of. However, the increasingly excellent local indie outfit is opening for Grammy-nominated rockers Plain White T's tonight at the Higher Ground Showcase Lounge. As regular readers know, I love it when local folks get the nod to open for bigger bands at the area's marquee juke joint. Can't happen enough, in my not-so humble opinion. Anyway, they will also be unveiling a new quickie EP, leading up to a full-length release at some point in the (relatively) near future.

You can take a listen to those songs below. But please don't be a jerk and rip them. If you dig the tunes — and I think you will — head over to HG and support good local music.
