Heavy Hometown is the latest local project to catch my ears. Jon Wood (guitar/vox), Corey Barnes (drums/vox) and Eric Park (bass/synth) make up the project and actually, like me, have ties to both Indianapolis and Louisville. They're drawing comparisons to The National, and what I like most is that most songs on Heavy Hometown's debut self-release, Action Figures (July 15th release date), don't waste your time. They generally get in and get out in just under three minutes. Each song seemed to leave me wanting more. [...]
After listening to the new Louisville is for Lovers release , I wrote that the next time I heard that The Deloreans were playing a show that I would be there. Seidenfaden's is within walking distance from my place, so I plan on being there. From what I've heard from Adventure , they are worth the trip as well. This will be my first time listening to Heavy Hometown . The show is FREE, so you can't beat that, and it starts at 11pm. See you there. The Deloreans - Demons [...]
