The Happy Hollows at The Mint

I enjoyed support band One Trick Pony, who sounds like what The Dears would sound like if they were into Dexys rather than The Smiths. I like their image - trendy geek (which is a refreshing change from hipsterdom) and singer Randolph Williams III was accordingly dressed as an airline pilot. He has a pleasant chilled demeanor and sounds a little like Sondre Lerche...

The Happy Hollows are currently enjoying 15 call minutes of fame as poster children for Samsung, but proved they weren't stuck inside of mobile with the memphis blues with a storming set. Highlights were TV favorite 'High Wire' and an incendiary closing couplet of 'Lieutenant' and 'Tambourine'. After handing out some vinyl to the kids (oh to be young...) they came back on for the driving 'Delorean'. Great show...
