Indie Music Worth Hearing Tonight!

Last time I went to a show on a Monday night and then blogged about how great it was on Tuesday, I heard complaints that I should have spread the word before the show so others could have benefited (although it was pretty amazing to have the band performing for only a dozen of us). So here’s your heads up for tonight: Go to Ghostrpint Gallery at 8 to hear Yndi Halda. They’re an indie-rock band from Canterbury, United Kingdom. The name Yndi Halda is Old Norse for “Enjoy Eternal Bliss.“ The band’s music is characterized by expansive, cinematic pieces, so the group has been compared to modern classical and post rock, although their work is usually considered more thematically optimistic and hopeful and more song-based than those kind of artists. Personally, I enjoy their sound for the same reason I like Explosions in the Sky…it’s big and beautiful and totally enveloping.
Go to Ghostprint Gallery for this show tonight or don’t whine to me tomorrow cause you missed something extraordinary. Fair warning to share the bliss tonight.
