Field Music Presents the Week That Was+Hallelujah the Hills

A night of indie rock that has no qualms about being smarter than the room. The Week That Was is one of the Field Music dudes, with the other two backing him, playing a mix of giddy power-pop and psychedelic prog. . . kind of like Field Music without the self-control. Hallelujah the Hills tell Lynchian stories that start in the middle, darkly opining about retiring scientists and broken curfews. With Arc in Round and Monuments.
