I recently picked up this album because the cover caught my eye. Popped it in the cd player at Criminal and within the first three songs already totally rocking out to it AND had three people ask me what was playing.
Chicago’s The Changes create indie pop so infectious your teeth with hurt. Their debut full length, “Today Is Tonight” dropped Sept 26 on Drama Club and worth every dime. It will more than satisfy your craving for new Shins, Rogue Wave, Walkmen or Ted Leo (though two of those have soon-to-be-released albums!).They’re also hitting the road in support of “Today Is Tonight” though sadly not coming anywhere near the Southeast…10.18.06 - Indianapolis, IN (Radio Radio)
10.19.06 - Ames, IA (The Maintenance Shop)
10.20.06 - Chicago, IL (Double Door)
10.21.06 - State College, PA (Tall Shiva)
10.22.06 - Boston, MA (Paradise Lounge)
10.24.06 - Hoboken, NJ (Maxwell’s)
