When Black Landlord enters KFN tonight, be prepared for a storm of boogie-down funk (which is fitting with the current weather predictions). Max Stoyanoff-Williams commands the mic unleashing authoritative rhymes as the band takes flight with the combination of bass, keys, guitar and horns thundering away creating a spellbindingly heavy groove that propels listeners to their feet. The beat of the percussion provide the consistent push that serves as the catalyst for the rest of the band while the horns blast away at opportune times – smooth phrasing adding a depth and brightness which sends the overall sound sky bound. For those who don’t want the Halloween weekend to end and who aren’t afraid of some rain, the Black Landlord Halloween Extravaganza is your go-to spot this evening. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 7:30, $10, 21+ – Michael Colavita
