we are, et al. – “A Burlesque Chorale”

If you’re in the mood for some ambient alterna-rock, we recommend the mysteriously-named we are, et al. and their new song, “A Burlesque Chorale.” The San Francisco collective is self-described as “world rock,” and brings to mind other acts like Bjork, Anathallo, and Freelance Whales. We were drawn in by their simmering intro and otherwise chill-out vibes. If you like it, head over to Bandcamp for a download.

Tonight: Et al.

Baltimore’s Et al. will be touring through Spiral Scratch today, bringing their new-wavey guitar-driven pop along with them. In case you missed the Queen City Lottery Showcase, two of the bands have “made it” and are acting as support tonight. Nail School, featuring members of Space Wolves, Merchants, and JOHNS, and NELJÄ (who suggest they might be your favorite of the night) will be playing, as well as Deutscher Girls, who will probably be in drag. The show starts at 6:00pm and will feature free cookies, free beer, and plenty of sick vinyls to flip through while you enjoy some live music. A mere $5 will get you this fantastic experience.
