If the week’s monotony has you feeling delirious, it would be a good idea to start the weekend off with an eclectic night of music in Somerville. PA’s Lounge will be host to three Boston-area artists for a show this Friday, January 6th. On the bill are The Doctors Fox (pictured above), School For Robots, and Daniel Harris.
Opening act Daniel Harris — who also provides glockenspiel, guitar, and vocals for The Doctors Fox– plays experimental anti-folk and aims to create ambient soundscapes. Following Harris is School For Robots, a band that has been putting out material since the early 2000s. School For Robots play an experimental mix of upbeat, alternative rock with funk influences as well as occasional electro-mariachi tendencies.
Playing last are The Doctors Fox, a smorgasbord of bluegrass, rock, pop, klezmer, reggae, funk, and general whimsy. Expect violins and new material in addition to songs from their 2009 album, Plural Non-Possessive.
Both School For Robots and The Doctors Fox will be debuting new band members at the show.
