Heyward Howkins & The Extraordinaires Opening for The Spinto Band at KFN May 22

The Spinto Band are returning to Kung Fu Necktie tonight for the third week of their residency. They’ll be bringing along the sweet, genteel vocals of singer-songwriter Heyward Howkins, one of the founding members of local indie choral supergroup The Silver Ages. He’ll be opening up the evening, and you’ll get a sneak preview of his forthcoming debut album The Hale & The Hearty, which is due out June 26. The Extraordinaires will also be sharing their unique brand of theatrical folk rock/pop. You should also expect new material from the gloriously unpredictable South Philly outfit since they’ve been working on a new album at Fancy Time Studio with Kyle “Slick” Johnson. Indie pop lovers should not miss tonight! Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $8, 21+ (Heyward Howkins Photo by Kyle Costill) – H.M. Kauffman
