I’ll be the first to admit, that I haven’t always been completely on board with this band Tapes N Tapes. I’ve seen the band a couple of times live, without any investment in the recorded material, and it just hasn’t done much for me. Since then, the some of the recorded material has caught my attention, and in the spirit of being more “open” minded with music these days, I think it time to give the band a shot once again. They are playing one of the best rooms in town, the Parish, so there’s no excuse for a crappy show, unless the band fails to deliver.

You like the Austin export White Denim? Tapes N Tapes could be considered being partially responsible for the increasing popularity of this slap happy style of indie garage rock. Quickly falling into some popularity here locally, while creating quite the buzz these days, Harlem bring their style of garage rock to the stage tonight opening the show for the Tapes N Tapes.

Show starts @ 9 p.m. with Harlem starting things off, Wild Light holding down the middle slot, and Tapes N Tapes getting a 3rd op from this guy. No pressure guys.

MP3> Tapes N Tapes ‘Hang Them All’

MP3> Harlem ‘Witchgreens’
