Juniper Tar at Club Garibaldi
Milwaukee band Juniper Tar established itself as one of the city’s finest purveyors of gentle folk-rock with 2008’s To The Trees, a spaced-out pastoral record designed for late summer nights spent polishing off whiskey bottles on the back porch. It’s no surprise that the new The Howl Street EP—named after Shane Hochstetler’s eternally busy Bay View studio Howl Street Recordings, where the record was made—is similarly lovely, particularly the slowly unfolding lead-off track “Interstates.” But Juniper Tar has really stepped its game up in concert, unfurling a surly three-guitar attack that explodes the group’s delicate melodies in all kinds of thrilling directions.
