Group of the Altos, All Tiny Creatures, The Caribbean

I am thirty years old today. While I’m not sure what my friends have in store for me tonight, I do plan on leaving The Hold Steady’s set at Summerfest and going directly to the Cactus Club, where, in my opinion, one of the best line-up’s of the summer awaits.

We’ve already shared our love of Milwaukee’s own Group of the Altos, (they also play Summerfest tomorrow) who played our SXSW showcase in Austin in March.

They’re anchoring tonight’s triple threat at Cactus along with The Caribbean (pictured above) and All Tiny Creatures, two of our favorites on the Home Tapes label. Both groups have upcoming albums due later this year, which we’re eager to hear. Until then, we’re excited for an advance listen in a live setting. See you there.

MP3: The Caribbean – “William of Orange”
MP3: The Caribbean – “Siamese Sons”
MP3: The Caribbean – “First & Last”
MP3: Group of the Altos – “Begin, And Begin Again!”

    Happy birthday, Ryan! Hope it was splendid. (yeah, i just said “splendid” — it’s also my daughter’s fifth birthday today and we’ve been doing a lot of tea partying and My Little Pony playing and the word splendid is just on the tip of my tongue.)
