Now that fall appears to have taken the reins, and an ever-present chill fills the air. The Bailey Hounds, playing Kung Fu Necktie tonight, fit naturally with the bonfire and bourbon scheme. Employing a casually haunting Americana sound that dabbles in rustic blues and folk accented by warming harmonica and guitar that’s rings in a penetrating echo rustling the spirits inviting them to join in, the group leads you deep into the thick of it. The music is the fire that we’ll all gather around. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 Front St., 8pm, $8, 21+ (Photo by Jim Vasquez) – Michael Colavita
