Tonight! Nic Armstrong and the Thieves and Scout Niblett at The Parish Room

We know this comes terribly late, but we had to let you know about tonight's fantastic show at The Parish, with Nic Armstrong and the Thieves opening for Scout Niblett.

Nic Armstrong and the Thieves' debut LP, The Greatest White Liar, immediately calls to mind 1960s British rock bands - think Beatles, Small Faces, and the Yardbirds. Armstrong himself possesses the same sort of haunted, raspy voice much like Dylan, Elliott Smith, or early-Rolling Stones Mick Jagger. Check back tomorrow for our interview with the English lads!

They'll be opening for English singer-songwriter Scout Niblett, who has "drawn comparisons to PJ Harvey, Cat Power and even Kurt Cobain for her sometimes abrasive, sometimes minimal, bluesy sound."

Scout Niblett and Nic Armstrong and the Thieves play The Parish Room tonight at 10pm. Tickets are available at the door.

Man, this was -such- a good show and hardly anyone was out for it... Scout Niblett is my favorite girl.
