WOXY Series: Neon Indian + The Tunnels, Tiger City at Stubb's Jr.
Somewhere on a steep and unnerving precipice—the one that separates ambient experimentation from the MGMTs of the indieverse—sits Alan Palomo, also known as Neon Indian. The young Texan has a few different aliases (VEGA, Ghosthustler), but as Neon Indian he pushes beats out of cheap speakers in all sorts of interesting and unexpected ways. Sometimes that means danceable disco; other times it’s more like squiggles, zaps, and gurgles. Mostly, however, it's both: a full-on electronic freak-out that’s not so hard to hum along to. It’s a hazy, if auspicious, start to recently immigrated Internet radio juggernaut WOXY’s new concert series at Stubb’s—made all the more hazy by droning, hypnagogic hitchhikers The Tunnels.
