It seems like 7 is the lucky number for The Toadies, the Texas-based rock band that first shook the nation in 1994 with their album “Rubberneck.” It took them 7 more years to produced another album (Hell Below/Stars Above, 2001) before they disbanded on the immediately following promotion tour. Now, 7 years later, The Toadies are back again with another new album: No Deliverance.

If you are planning on seeing Man Man live in concert anytime soon, get ready for the best peformance you will ever see in your life. As the band takes the stage, moustached tribal faces painted dressed all in white, they will sit quietly and bow to each other before they begin. Then come the bike horns, kitchen pots, tambourines, and piano reminiscent of Tom Waits. If you have ever been to a fundamentalist church gathering then get ready for- the band will be kicking, contorting, and jumping out of their stools to throw themselves into their percussions, as you look on ready to bow down and worship. And worship you will, especially after they bring out the water and baptize you during one of their songs (seriously). Find out more about the arty and innovative Man Man here.

Hearing the Fleet Foxes perform live in concert is the equivalent to standing on the edge of the ocean or the edge of the woods or near the edge of a mountain and feeling eternity ring through the air. Envision the autumn leaves slowly falling to the ground where little helper elves in green boots sweep them up before the sly red fox with black paws comes hungry for supper on this brisk day. Yeah, it’s kind of like that. The Fleet Foxes fall under the category of “new folk” with artists such as Joanna Newsom. They combine the vocals of My Morning Jacket and The Shins with the harmonies of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and they don the instrumentals of heaven. Check them out.
