I stopped to catch a couple of songs from this group while heading to another show. The band is Judgement Day, a trio from California that describes itself as "string metal." Move over Brooklyn Rider!
The show I was on my way to see was Freelance Whales at the Paste Magazine day party. This band has a fantastic energy, lots of charm, incredible harmonies. You'll be hearing a lot more from them this year.
Bob Boilen and Robin Hilton spin their favorite new tunes and present the best live concerts around the country. Listen and join the conversation.
