Weekend Show Forecast: 11/27

Theodore

Where: Off Broadway
When: Doors at 8:30, Show at 9

Theodore’s sound is straight out of another time – full of country roads, dusty phonographs, and just enough pedal steel to make you really feel it. The Saint Louis-based band will bring their unique folk/bluegrass sound to Off Broadway this Friday evening.  Stop in for a listen and maybe you’ll catch a song off of their upcoming album, slated for release in February 2010, or possibly their killer cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Chelsea Hotel.”

Say Anything – Say Anything

Say Anything’s self-titled new album is most accurately described as remarkably relatable.

These are themes interwoven throughout the album in the form of melodic tunes like “Do Better” and unforgettably angsty refrains proclaiming “Hate Everyone.” It’s my story. It’s your story. It’s our story.
