Jeanines / Luxor Rentals / OOF
10 Fiske Ave 10 Fiske Avenue, Greenfield, MA, United StatesCome out for a night of indiepop, indie rock/psychedelia, and post-punk! Jeanines specialize in ultra-short bursts of energetic but melancholy minor-key pop. With influences that run deep into the most crucial tributaries of DIY pop, they've crafted a style that is as individual as it is just plain pleasurable. Alicia Jeanine's pure, unaffected voice muses wistfully on the illusions of time, while My Teenage Stride/Mick Trouble mastermind Jed Smith's frantic Motown-esque drumming and inventive bass playing provide a thrilling rhythmic foundation. Luxor Rentals make loose, jangling psychedelia formed around each member's own ideas about what rock music actually rocks (Poco/early Verve/Curt Boettcher/The Church/VU are frequently discussed). Their bunker is in Orange, MA, but they can be found playing sporadically around the Pioneer Valley. OOF is a post-punk trio of baritone sax/guitar/drums featuring former members of Rathaus, Pelvi$$, The Duke of Uke & His Novelty Orchestra, and Famous Logs in History. Their most recent tape, ""What's Bad is Good,"" is out now from Fuzzy Warbles Cassettes. They live in Brooklyn and Amsterdam, NY.
