January 12 - Cleveland - Beachland Tavern It's a rare thing to find smart, poetic lyricism in pop music. Greycoats' anglo-rock manages to spend both words and melody wisely. Their debut full-length album, "Setting Fire to the Great Unknown" (self-released, 2008) was marked by strong ambition, heartfelt romanticism and big ideas with a cinematic sweep exploring the mechanics of polarization. Their music found airtime on the hit teen drama Gossip Girl, leading to national exposure for the quartet from Minnesota and a tour of both U.S. coasts through the end of 2009. They returned to the Libr...

November 4 - Youngstown - Covelli Center Indiana University alum Straight No Chaser strut their a cappella stuff with harmonious renditions of popular favorites at the Covelli Center on Friday, November 4.

In an era when so much pop music is the product of digital processing and vocal pro-tooling, Straight No Chaser is the real deal - the captivating...
Ah, there’s nothing like the drone of indie-pop, and this Canadian band, Boats, has it down. Lead singer Mat Klachefsky’s has a voice that is sometimes a unique tone that keeps you interested and listening (think Andrew McMahon of Something Corporate), but more often then I’d hope for, he slips into a tone that makes you think he could be a Weird Al Yankovic cover band. “Drinking the Lake” and “Breakfast, Coffee, Lunch, Internet” are solid songs — the latter being an electronic sort of march. “Summercamp vs. The Fake Moustache Tree” is another highpoint of the album...

In his native England, musician/comedian Neil Innes is a bit more of a household name, both as member of the 1960s Dadaist psychedelic musical combo The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band and as star of multiple cult BBC TV shows, including “Rutland Weekend Television,” co-hosted with Eric Idle. But here in the States, Innes is probably best known for his contributions to various Monty Python-related projects, including “Spamalot” and the classic Beatles parody “The Rutles,” where Innes starred as Lennon opposite Idle’s McCartney. Innes has recently been on the concert circuit with his Bonzo...
