Also Playing: Magic Kids and Smith Westerns

Wed Feb 10
7 pm
Girls, Magic Kids, and Smith Westerns at Bluebird Theater
Girls is a San Francisco band with a compelling back-story—singer Christopher Owens grew up in the Children Of God, a scary cult that’s worth staying as far away from as possible—and a debut album that’s inspired as much by rock obsessives like Elvis Costello as it is by early rock itself: Buddy Holly, to be sure, but also early albums from acts like The Beach Boys and The Beatles. Album is the Girls album’s name, and like the title, there’s a sense of transparency that bleeds through the songs. Anchoring the proceedings is Owens’ voice, a sonorous thing that’s as vulnerable as it is assertive.
