The Midwest Beat, Sugar Stems, Dabs, Phylums, and The Get Drunk DJs at Linneman's
Wisconsin vintage-pop enthusiasts The Midwest Beat stretched the meaning of “retro” by tracking an album inside Madison’s historic (and acoustically immaculate) Gates Of Heaven synagogue. At The Gates expands on the jangles, harmonies, and perky tempos that first endeared the band to local music geeks, but also channels the damn-near-innocent heart of ’60s soul singles, and at times gets a lot more psychedelic. The new Gone Not Lost snaps off even more bite-sized pop nuggets (none over the three-minute mark), like the infectious title track and energetic “Obliterated.” The Midwest Beat will celebrate the release of the album at tonight’s show.
