Tonight Poughkeepsie mythic folk rockers The Warp/The Weft bring their widescreen sensibilities to The Mohawk with local folk heroes Carmen & Lizzy and newbies Urban Planning. Straight up out of the depths of time and downstate, The Warp/The Weft is mindbending folk rock for a dark and stormy night at sea or the apocalypse, to such an extent that one can’t help but picture lead vocalist Shane Murphy belting out his epic shanties whilst lashed to the ship’s wheel during a gale or while holding a lantern, shrouded and pointing into misty darkness. It’s all pretty heady stuff and fun.
Opening the show will be the exquisitely ethereal but always realer than real Carmen & Lizzy and left field but very laid back indie rockers Urban Planning. Doors are at 7pm, show’s at 8pm, and cover is $5.
