In case you missed it, there was an update posted yesterday (which you can read here) that talked about MAHA local showcases and McCarthy Trenching and Big Harp, etc. Read it if you haven’t.

Tonight at The Waiting Room, it’s the return of The Thermals. The Portland band (was signed to Sub Pop, and now to Kill Rock Stars) has been coming ’round these parts for years. Opening band Morning Teleportation also hails from Portland and has a jangle-indie sound that borders on chamber pop. Also opening is local heroes Little Brazil, back in town smack-dab in the middle of tour. All three for $12. Show starts at 9.
