Blair from Speakertree Records in Lynchburg had very good things to say about Givers who are playing at The Box tonight. Since opening Speakertree a year and a half ago, he’s also used his space to host shows on occasion. I am unable to list everybody who’s played there but I know Kurt Heasley from the Lilys played a special set as well as Jeff the Brotherhood and Lost in the Trees. Blair said Givers was one of his favorite shows he’s hosted to date so I am pretty excited to see them. They went out on tour with the Dirty Projectors opening some of their shows this fall so maybe you saw them if you caught the DC date. Canino’s spinoff the Left and Right Band will kick things off. They haven’t played many shows in town yet but I had the opportunity to see them before and I thought they were really impressive, especially since they sound as though they’re delving into some of my favorite bands from the 1990s. Things will start around 10:30, no cover, 21+.
