San Diego's Donkeys give us the impression that they are much weirder than their band's prosaic name or their subtly executed arrangements suggest. Curiously forward nudge-and-a-wink lyrics, gangly Jonathan Richman guitars, and a fat Fender Rhodes hefted onstage for good measure all conspire to competently deliver some of the most easygoing couchsurf-indie you'll hear this semester.

San Diego, CA's The Donkeys will feature at the inimitable Mohawk. There's not as much braying as you might think. Moreover, these burro bros feature impeccable harmonies and guitar hooks that jangle over their tunes like Mardi Gras beads over firm bosoms. Not good enough? Sometimes jammy, sometimes indie-pop served straight-up like the previous simile, all of what we've heard so far is good to the last drop.
