Former Belle‘s recently released 6-track EP, Sounds from the Ground, is Americana fun incarnate. The local four-piece combines plucky neo-blue grass and warbly, earnest vocals to create foot-tapping folk, even during their most bittersweet sullen moments, like the willows of "Amsterdam." And they’ll join forces with another equally fun local folk act, the Holcomb Family, tonight at North Star Bar. It should be a classy show. North Star Bar, 2639 Poplar St., 9pm, $10, 21+ – Annamarya Scaccia
