Berklee-trained neo-psychedelic rockers Apollo Sunshine play tonight at DC9 before heading to London for a European tour. Their sound is a throwback to ‘60s-era underground pop/rock, combining big fuzz with eclectic orchestration. Their songs swell with wah-wah and bounce with heavy echo and break into bouts of chaos, blending the Violent Femmes and the Kinks—a refreshing change for a moment saturated with formulaic indie dance bands. As Sam Cohen recently told Paste: “We were much more imagining things, considering all possibilities, and that led to, ‘you know what’d be great here is a whole string section, or a bunch of horns,’ and just going for it and indulging in every far-out idea we had.”

The show starts at 9 p.m.; tickets are $12.

Anyone familiar with Brooklyn-based experimental folk outfit Grizzly Bear noticed a new sound emerging from their performance of two unreleased songs on KCRW and Letterman; the songs kept their charming reverb and signature vocal harmonizations, but they departed from the dissonance and sound experimentation that marked Horn of Plenty and Yellow House. With the newest Grizzly Bear album still in production, singer-guitarist Daniel Rossen has just released In Ear Park with Department of Eagles, a project Rossen started while an undergrad at NYU. With production by fellow Grizzly Bear Chris Taylor, the album reflects the band’s later work—it’s grounded in a more radio-friendly, pop-infused style but still evokes the choruses and multi-instrumental collaborations that are Grizzly Bear’s trademark. Check out their performance last week on Late Night With Conan O’Brien:
