Nicki Bluhm and the Gramblers, the Brothers Comatose
9 pm., Thursday February 07 | $15.
[DOO-WOP AMERICANA] Any band that can make a video cover of Hall and
Oates’ “I Can’t Go for That (No Can Do)” while in its van, manage to make it cool
and garner 2 million views for it, is OK by me. Nicki Bluhm and the
Gramblers’ latest release, Driftwood, is full of old-time folk;
dreamy, doo-wop-tinged Americana; and the kind of rock that was king
about 35 years ago. There is more than a passing vocal similarity
between Bluhm and the great Stevie Nicks at times, so look elsewhere if
you are looking for a band that’s completely distinctive. But if homages
are your thing, check out the Lynyrd Skynyrd-esque sound of
“Little Too Late,” the single from the Gramblers’ upcoming,
as-yet-untitled album.
