Wet Illustrated kicks off tour with Devon Williams
Fresh off the release of 1x1x1, SF’s Wet Illustrated bring their exuberant art-pop to Amnesia on Thursday (9pm, $7-10), kicking off a series of West Coast dates with Devon Williams. Tim Cohen’s Magic Trick headlines the evening.
Wet Illustrated – “Gypsy Town”
Magic Trick (Tim Cohen) – “Daylight Moon”
Devon Williams – Your Sympathy by Slumberland Records
MINOT (ex-From Monument to Masses) debuts at the Starry Plough
It stunk when From Monument to Masses broke up, so it’s really exciting to see Matthew Solberg unleashing a new band billed as “Post-Psych Kraut-Punk.” MINOT is a trio with Shannon Corr and Ben Thorne, and the band’s first show ever is a sharp all-local affair with Tartufi and Mwahaha at the Starry Plough on Saturday the 19th.
Mwahaha (ft. Merrill Garbus) – “Love”
Kimya Dawson brings Thunder Thighs to the Rickshaw Stop
Kimya Dawson‘s new album Thunder Thighs combines bold, smart examinations of life and motherhood with awesome production assisted by Aesop Rock. Dawson will perform at the Rickshaw Stop on November 20th (8pm, $15), with Your Heart Breaks and Dave End.
Your Heart Breaks – “Torrey Pines (Feat. Kimya Dawson)”
The Stone Foxes play final SF show of 2011
The Stone Foxes‘ final SF show of the year is at The Independent on Tuesday night (8pm, $10) with the Steve Taylor Band. After the show, the SF rock and roll band is going to spend the winter working on writing and recording a new record.
Steve Taylor – “Waiting on a Friend”
