Hopefully you've had this one on your calendar for two months now, but in case you haven't - here's your friendly reminder that Frightened Rabbit and French Kicks are in town tonight to play over at Exit/In. I have been SUPER excited about this show since it was announced - not only are French Kicks one of my favorite bands, but I've been head over heels for Scotland's Frightened Rabbit for the past six months or so as well.
I got a chance to see Frightened Rabbit back in March at SXSW, and one of my few regrets from that Austin trip is the fact that I only got to see them once. But today, here in Nashville, we have the opportunity to see them twice! The band is also playing a free in-store at Grimey's at 6 p.m., and I highly, highly recommend you check it out. While you're there, you should also pick up a copy of The Midnight Organ Fight, which is pretty darn high in the ranks of albums vying for the title of Janet's Favorite of 2008.
I actually played two tracks off the new album on last night's show (you can stream it right here), but in case you need extra persuading - here's another new one and one from Sing the Greys as well.
"The Modern Leper" (from The Midnight Organ Fight)
"Music Now" (from Sing the Greys)
I've been going on and on about French Kicks literally for years now on this blog, and I hope everyone who is reading this already got a chance to see them one of the last times they were in town (at the Basement or Exit/In). Tonight is the first time they'll be visiting Nashville since the recent release of Swimming though, and I'm most definitely looking forward to hearing the new songs live. I played two on last night's show (remember - here) but here's another pair:
"Said So What" (from Swimming)
"One More Time" (from The Trial of the Century)
Tonight's show kicks off at 9 p.m. with The Weather Underground - tickets are only $10 and the show is 18+. See you there!
