Bowery Ballroom: New York’s sextet Frances is my favorite amongst the bands playing tonight. The music is a dynamc blend of opposites stirred in to strike a compelling balance: pop against the unpop, wanderings against the hooky, and so on. With the right kind of energy, their set show should be delightful. They’re opening for The Walkmen and The Muslims, so it’s a pretty good line-up.
More bands after the jump.
