Fabulous Diamonds, Soft Healer at Mohawk [Show Preview]

Before you shove off elsewhere for Thanksgiving or alternately just shove delicious turkey or fauxrkey into your gullet, take a chance to see some live music before all secular music is replaced by variations of this song. Tonight the Mohawk is hosting a performance by Fabulous Diamonds, who are visiting us from Australia. A noisy duo consisting of Jarrod Zlatic and Nisa Venerosa, the band released their sophomore album Fabulous Diamonds II on the Slitbreeze label this year. The group's curious blend of atmospherics and heavy rhythms make their music somewhat sweet and agitated all at once.

Lending support are the talented "local yokels" of Soft Healer. Starting as a duo, the group has expanded their sound and their allotted drink tickets by adding two more members to the fold. We are waiting with bated breath for a full-length, but sadly have no news to share in that regard. Bronx duo Pigeons are also performing. Their music is often electronic and weird, but fully organic. Pigeons have a new record out called Liasons. Check it out.
