On Friday, April 22, Hear Now Live presents The Rex Complex, The Doctors Fox, Miss Fairchild and Ellis Ashbrook live at Johnny D’s in Somerville.
9pm The Rex Complex – Originally from Boston, but now residing in Brooklyn, this band is a frantic, loud, energetic experimental outfit that has garnered comparisons to Dirty Projectors.
10pm The Doctors Fox – The Doctors Fox are a Boston band with a hodgepodge of influences, from bluegrass to funk to rock and jazz, among other things. Yet, with all these influences comes a diverse eclectic sound that keeps the audience on their toes.
11pm Miss Fairchild – This 8-piece Boston based band has a unique soundscape that’s part funk, part soul, and part 1980’s Prince (before he became The Artist Formally Known As…)
12am Ellis Ashbrook – Also originally from Boston, but now Brooklyn-based, this psych/jam/funk band creates a wall of sound that’s as fun as it is mind-blowing.
