Umami To Play Final Two Shows This Weekend + Photos
Umami is a band that we’ve long been interested in checking out. The whole drums with two basses and no guitar thing was immediately intriguing when we first heard about it and the songs we were first able to hear on their MySpace page were impressive. We were finally able to see them play live recently at the release party for their new album, Fire & Spiders, and their intricate indie-prog sound was well worth the wait. We just wish we’d been able to see them much sooner, as they now only have two shows left before they go their separate ways. They’ll be playing this Friday at Union Hall and Saturday at a Brooklyn loft party (details below). Here’s an mp3 from the new release, and some photos from the release party at the Delancey, with more available on Flickr:
