The Novel Ideas at Great Scott -Selected by Zoë
Local act The Novel Ideas describe themselves as a “country folk quintet,” but their music has a modern twist that pushes them past the boundaries of that genre. But why take my word for it when you can see them up close and personal at the Great Scott?

Dopapod at The Palladium -Selected by Matt M.
I was never a huge fan of so-called instrumental “jam bands” until someone showed me Dopapod. From spacey dance music to disco-tinged funk to heavy blues rock, this talented group is a classic case of “a little something for everyone.” There’s a good reason why they sell out shows across New England every Halloween and New Years. These guys don’t mess around when it comes to bringing the party.
