Boston Rock Photos And Stuff
Here’s Sidewalk Driver at Redstar Union. The songs were wonderful. The sound was amazing. The lights shone almost as brightly as the band’s performance. Basically, it was everything I had hoped it would be. I can’t wait to see the videos from this one.
Eldridge Rodriguez brought their bluesy noise pop to the ultra-modern Redstar Union for a very special show curated by Richard Bouchard. The raw emotion tangled with the elaborate lighting for an engaging set.
I’m not sure why it has taken me so long to take in a show at Redstar Union. I’ve watched the live streams and video clips they produce and I’m always amazed at the quality. For some reason I’ve never made my way over to the slick Kendall Square performance space. Well, Brian Charles* curated last week’s The Singhs & Friends residency. His picks? Aaron Perrino and The Field Effect. OK, you got me. I’m now watching The Field Effect bounce around the Redstar stage like excited molecules powered by fancy LED lighting…
* Along with being one of the best producers in town over at Zippah, Brian runs Zippah Records and founded the fabulous Tuesday Night Recording Club with Aaron Perrino. He knows his stuff.
The Singhs have a good thing going on over at Redstar Union. A monthly residency on the high-tech sound stage is a great showcase for their pop songsmithery.
There’s weight to Aaron Perrino’s work. His songs have a message. His voice is commanding. The combination is powerful.
