Lolita Bras @ Union Hall - 9/7 - 8pm

If you haven't heard of up this up-and-coming New York outfit yet, it's time to get on board. Calling on influences from the Smiths to Joy Division, Lolita Bras blends the new with the familiar to create their own blend of foot-tapping, slightly neurotic anthems on their 2006 EP "Caught in the Open Too Deep". The single, "Her Own Conversation," is bound for iPods everywhere before you know it, and the rest of the album belts out an honesty and energy that can't be ignored. Check them out this Thursdsay at Union Hall with IO. These guys are the shit, but don't take my word for it, go check them out... they're even better live.
