Thor’s CD Release w/ Yellow Fever, Thor & Friends, Tre Orsi, Shaky Hands
Thu. 10/25 | 10:00AM @ Club de Ville (Downtown)

The Shaky Hands’ self-titled debut jitters and jangles like a burnt-out mind taking refuge in happy thoughts. The Portland band uses its lo-fi prettiness to expand, not to smother, the overall sound, leaving space for flutes, strings, and, of course, plenty of handclaps and white noise. Much more stripped-down but no less charming, Austin’s Yellow Fever continues to win admirers (they’re the musical equivalent of realizing you’re in love with your platonic girl best friend) including local label I Eat Records, which just added the slinky-cool group to its already impressive roster. This show serves as YF’s official coming out as well as a celebration of the release of Fields of Innards, an ambient, handmade release put together in 1999 by veteren percussionist Thor Harris (Devandra Banhart, Angels of Light). Harris’ Shearwater bandmate Howard Draper opens with his side project, Tre Orsi.
Fatlip + Tre Hardson (Lounge)

Fatlip, erstwhile lead MC of The Pharcyde, is still touring behind 2005’s The Loneliest Punk, a smart, silly disc that marks a welcome return after being ejected from the group in 1995. That decade-long drought is nicely explained in “Writer’s Block,” which begins with a frustrated “Ah, fuck!” before continuing: “One out of every two people that see me/ in the street ask me about my CD/what style I will create/and what’s the delay on the release date?/ I hate to y’all the cold, cold truth/ I’m an old nigger in the vocal booth/ I could have been a legend like Big and ‘Pac/ But I caught a bad case of writer’s block.” Such clever, humorous honesty characterizes the album, and shoudl endear Fatlip to more fans than ever. Joining him for the “Over 30 Dirty Old Men Tour” is another Pharcyde alumnus, Tre Hardson, who will duet with Fatlip on som ePharcyde classics as well as showcase tracks from his latest solo effort, Slimkid3’s Cafe. Opening: Omni, DJ Cee Brown, DJ Twist One.
