Mike Bell & the Movies Opening for Parquet Courts at KFN Jan. 10

Mike Bell & the Movies will be bringing their brand of introverted indie pop to the cozy stage of Kung Fu Necktie tonight. While Bell’s 2011 self-deprecatingly titled album The World’s Unremarkable Man is rather upbeat, his latest release Concepts/Themes plays out a bit somber, but the introspective nature of his songwriting still remains. He’ll be opening for buzzing rockers Parquet Courts who are currently on their first U.S. Tour, and will also be joined by local all-female trio Amanda X, Priests and The Cats. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $5, 21+ – H.M. Kauffman
