Creeping Weeds are an indie rock crew that we like, and we are glad to see that they are really back from their hiatus. They had gained a bunch of local buzz for their LP, We Are All Part of a Dream You’re Having, which tinkled and jangled with the best of them. Their fresh yet nostalgic sound recalls contemporaries like The Unicorns and The Boy Least Likely To as well as predecessors like Built to Spill and Pavement. One would be hard pressed to read a review that didn’t include a Pavement reference, but one may be even more hard pressed to ignore the similarities. They are opening up for In Granada, a young band with a big sound. Singer Jesse Leyh reminds me of The Gaslight Anthem’s Brian Fallon, but In Grenada are drenched more in reverb and rely on atmosphere and harmonies as they do anything else. This show tonight at KFN seems to be filled with acts that really should, and possibly could get some more national buzz. Make sure to come and support them so they don’t all get super sad and break up. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $5, 21+ – Adam G.
