Blending plainspoken folk lyricism, jangly, lo-fi surf guitars, twangy vocal harmonies and tasteful sprinkles of alt-country instruments—like banjo, pump organ and harmonica—this Los Angeles quintet sound like a multigenerational echo rippling through Laurel Canyon. Currently on tour behind their sophomore LP, The World We Built, the band makes a pit stop in San Jose before heading up the West Coast and then on to the rest of the Lower 48. Local artist and singer-songwriter Ben Henderson (formerly of Brother Grand and Good Hustle) opens the show. (NV)
