Creative Loafing’s recommended shows for Fri., Oct. 3
Friday, October 3rd, 2008
THE WALKMEN, THE LITTLE ONES The Walkmen are a pale comparison of the band that once was Jonathan Fire Eater. But with their latest offering, You & Me, the swaggering New York hipsters return to the unrestrained art-rock form of their last truly great album, 2004’s Bows and Arrows. Los Angelean twee pop five-piece the Little Ones open the show with a set of songs from their latest release, Morning Tide. $12. 9:30 p.m. The Earl. 404-522-3950. www.badearl.com. — Chad Radford
TEJENDRA NARAYAN MAJUMDAR & ANUBRATA CHATTERJEE Admired for his remarkable agility and beautiful tone, Majumdar is a world-renowned master of the sarod, a fretless stringed instrument of northern India that is revered for its introspective depth, subtlety and expressive power. He is joined by Chatterjee, one of the great Hindustani tabla players of the Farukhabad Gharana tradition, whose playing is distinguished by a formidable virtuosity, tonal clarity and crisp, clear rhythms. $15. 8:30 p.m. Couch Music Building, Georgia Tech. 650-814-2408. www.paragchordia.com/concert. — MG
