Friday night looks like a good one for live music in Naughty-By-Nawfuk.
Illadelphia's rambunctious Hoots and Hellmouth play at Town Point Park's TGIF bash. Then, for later evening entertainment, you've got two choices. Tanner's Creek has a show featuring the garage-ish, punkish, yet melodic Villains and Two Tone Cadillac. The Villains are set to go on first around 11 p.m., with the Two Tone boys to follow at midnight.
Meanwhile, over at The Boot, a presumably younger crowd will be enjoying some indie pop and folk from a threesome of acts. Here's what The Boot's site had to say about the show:
"What a fantastic little event this has turned into. It started as a seed and through watering and some tender loving care it has sprouted into a lovely and fragrant flower. North Carolina art-pop-n-rockers The Never will be bringing their cutesy blend of melodic pop to our stage. Knowing these guys for several years, they have never disappointed a crowd with their show. We have two beautiful locals on the bill with them as well. Tokyo, just released a new EP and will be performing their stylish blend of circus pop and Sarah Carter a haunting and charming folkstress."
I've yet to sample any sounds from The Never or Sarah Carter, but I can say that Tokyo is a combo out of Virginia Beach with a gift for melody and guitar drama. Radiohead and Coldplay are obvious reference points, but don't hold that against them. Since they're playing in the middle, I'm guessing they'll go on about the same time as The Villains.
I guess I'm going to have to try to hear a little of both.

We saw The Never at Relative Theory a couple years back, and although we were 2 in a crowd of about 10, they put on a great show. There was a guy who switched between Cello and other orchestral instruments. Their CD came with an illustrated storybook that told you to move on to the next section of the book with each track. Very nice stuff going on there.
