Please Go See: Euros Childs



I went to check out Euros Childs at the Echo last night -- me, and about 30 or so other Welsh psych-pop-folk fans. It was dismally uncrowded, and Euros still managed to put on an insanely good show.

He's touring with a two-person backup band, and even though I didn't recognize most of the songs he played (damn you Wichita Records and your spotty American releases!), they were all instantly catchy, sweetly melodic, and danceable. He's still hitting up a good chunk of the U.S. of A., so check his site to see if he's on his way near you.

He's also co-headlining with David Kilgour, formerly of Kiwi band The Clean. I'd never heard their music before last night, but it's also worth sticking around for -- intricately layered, slightly-twangy guitar rock. I'll be picking up some of his records very soon.
