tanlines, keepaway and more at glasslands.

Glasslands should be a good option for Friday night. Tanlines and Keepaway each have a distinctly unique sound and the venue is pretty cool. I wrote them up at Eardrum so you can read that here. Here are some tracks from the groups that are playing.

Tanlines - Real Life

Tanlines - Bees

Tanlines - Reinfo

Keepaway - Yellow Wings

Keepaway - 5 Rings

Memoryhouse - The Waves

Light Pollution - All Night Outside
