year. Drawing comparisons to The Replacements, Deer Tick, Lucero, Wilco, and
the Clash, the band's six members tore up the stage in a misting rain, with
lead singer Naseem Khuri ripping at his guitar while Jenée Morgan Force
alternated between violin and saxophone, forming an impromptu horn section with
keyboardist Chris Barrett picking up the trumpet. NPR Music streamed the set:
