  2. Indie Folk Trio Plume Giant Return to Yale With a New CD on Sept. 7

    <span style=&quot;font-size: medium;">Indie folk, or chamber pop, or whatever it&rsquo;s called when musicians sing together over an acoustic/electric mix of instruments (it used to be called &ldquo;folk rock&rdquo;), is full of recycled chord progressions and predictable vocal harmonies. That&rsquo;s not a problem, really. It&rsquo;s a shared musical language with ties to the early &rsquo;60s (even earlier) and later, into the soft rock of the &rsquo;70s and &rsquo;80s. Traits-in-common keep it real, grounded, accessible. The world&rsquo;s already too artsy, and as a friend recently said, &ldquo;Virtuosity is embarrassing.&rdquo;</span>

  3. Plume Giant CD Release Party, Sept. 1st at Wesleyan

    Indie neo-folk trio Plume Giant, who'll play a release show for their debut full-length, <em>Callithump</em>, at Wesleyan on Saturday, have Connecticut roots. Oliver Hill (guitar, viola, voice), Nolan Green (guitar, harmonium, voice) and Eliza Bagg (violin, harmonium, trinkets, voice) met as Yale students (Hill and Bagg, classical music lineage firmly in place, were both music majors), and they've returned to CT regularly since then. Their songs (they write them together) have been compared favorably to Bowerbirds, Dirty Projectors, Sea Wolf and Dan Hicks, and they've toured with some other folks you might have heard of &mdash; Brown Bird, Sharon Van Etten, Paper Bird, Sean Rowe and He's My Brother She's My Sister. <em>Callithump </em>was recorded with engineer James Frazee, who's worked with the Hold Steady, The Walkmen and Son Volt. Should be pretty raucous, in an acoustic-cool sort of way.
