The Mad Violinist & The Symphony Crack Orchestra

The Mercury Program at New World Brewery

One of the most ingenious and talented bands from the early 2000s. Electronics mixed with some almost jazzy sounds – a cool, mellow sound, like the Sea and Cake reinterpreting their favorite Modern Jazz Quartet sides. The electronics and loops are introduced sparingly, interesting textures, never becoming the center of musical attention The Mercury Program will be of no interest to those who find instrumental post-rock insufferably dull, but it's consistently melodic, rhythmically varied, and unfailingly listenable. Doors open at 9pm. Tickets are between $9 and $12. New World Brewery, 1313 East Avenue.
