Have a Banner Year With Kris Racer @ The Green Muse

Kris Racer's album, Has a Banner Year has quietly garnered a noticeable amount of praise recently, and we're pleased that he's stopping by this evening to play some songs for us. Sweet, shaky vocals and delicate acoustics define Racer's release, which will appeal to fans of early Built to Spill, Halo Benders, and, incidentally, dozens of other bands that play this type of purposefully off-kilter indie pop. Racer is perfect mixtape material for beginning an imperfect courtship: tender lyrics, sensitive (but mostly out of tune) harmonies, casual screw-ups and an alluring sort of underdog vibe leave their stamp boldly throughout all the songs. Check him out tonight at The Green Muse with Hollywood Gossip and others, and bring your little sister.
