Weekend picks: Brooklyn indie rock and shoegazey buzz
Ringo Deathstarr
FRIDAY
Recommended
- Yanni at the Erwin Center
- Brothers and Sisters at the Continental Club
- Beautiful Supermachines, Distant Seconds at the Mohawk
- Golden Boys, Tia Carrera at Room 710
SATURDAY
Ringo Deathstarr at Stubb’s. Despite a dicey name and reference points (Jesus and Mary Chain, Spaceman 3) that are practically public domain at this point, this shoegazey act’s buzz continues to build. Their EP is now available on wax via the boutique label Fandeath, which has featured records by the far heavier Clockcleaner and Drunkdriver, giving Ringo Deathstarr a new and slightly more dangerous context. Songs are pretty decent, too. 9 p.m. $8. - J.G.

SUNDAY
White Rabbits at Emo’s. New York indie rock brimming with verve and gumption. Their new album, ‘It’s Frightening,’ released last month, boasts production from Spoon big man Britt Daniel and Spoon producer Mike McCarthy. Expect a lot of well-meaning head-nodding from the crowd. With the Subjects, the Boxing Lesson. 10 p.m. $10. - J.G.
