Week of Wonders, the terrific phoenix to rise out of the ashes of the awesome Orca Team, is playing at Holland on May 4th with Cat Jelly and Jazz the Children. Week of Wonders plays in the sun with a tropical surf sound, more lounging with umbrella drinks than actually catching waves. It couldn’t rule more. Expect shredding bass with terrific vocals. Local angry under 21ers Cat Jelly will spread the punk/no wave word of the strawberried (maybe graped) paw. Jazz the Children are Fallon’s true rock and roll saviors. Seriously they rule and they’re from Fallon, if you miss them you’re kind of a jerk. Saturday, May 4th 8PM $5.

Y’all know about Dischord Records? Ian Mackaye’s (Fugazi, Minor Threat, The Evens) truly inspirational DC music label. Well we got Dischord darling E.D. Sedgwick coming on April 19th.

Just like Black Eyes or a less electronic LCD Soundsystem. Playing on the local level is awesome songs by Televisions and the weird as hell Library Lady. Friday, April 19th $5 8PM.
