NYC's Grooms are coming to town tonight for a show at the Che Cafe. I must admit, I found these indie rocker homies on Stereogum, but I don't think it's such a bad thing. Better there than anywhere else (as far as I'm concerned). I agree with Seth Combs 'obvious influences' describing Grooms below & would add a pinch of trippy-dude Sonic Youth. I anticipate a killer show!
FYI: Life Deposits just yesterday dropped off the bill due to a family emergency, so the kind dudes of your favorite Weatherbox will be opening the show.
City Beat's Seth Combs (John E. Utah's bff) seems down with the cause:
PLAN A: Drug Wars, Grooms, Tempo No Tempo, Weatherbox @ Che Café. Tactfully balancing the line between garage and hardcore, Drug Wars remain one of the best local live bands. And Brooklyn’s Grooms manage to transcend obvious influences (Pavement, Broken Social Scene) to create smart indie rock that’s both tribute and novel (see video below).
