Juniper Tar and Surgeons In Heat at Turner Hall Ballroom
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. The 2010 release The Howl Street EP was similarly lovely, particularly the slowly unfolding lead-off track, “Interstates.” Live and on record (not to mention in the 2011 tour doc Points Of Interest), Juniper Tar is a uniquely Midwestern band, and practically bleeds Milwaukee pride. Following a monthlong residency at The Hotel Foster, the group celebrates the release of its terrific new album, Since Before, at tonight’s show. Joining Juniper Tar will be a host of local musicians who pitched in during the residency, as well as Surgeons In Heat, who are releasing a self-titled album of their own.
