Support the independent voice of South Florida and help keep the future of New Times free.
Sleigh Bells, which we think you should be listening to out of a sense of South Florida pride, and because Treats is a phenomenal mix of beats, ragged guitars, samples and Alexis Krauss' versatile voice, is coming to West Palm Beach's Respectable Street July 8. Do not sleep on buying tickets to this show, because it will probably mean that you go to sleep with tears in your eyes at home on the night of July 8 with only your iPod for company.
Show up early for Miami's Nerve City, a Velvet Underground-leaning outfit that probably could headline this bill with their lo-fi retro rock like "Sleepwalker" in a slightly different trend cycle. Also Sleigh Bells' tourmates Po Po, a Philadelphia/Los Angeles duo that packs some chunky hooks into each lo-fi stomp.
On July 3, Jacksonville buzz band Black Kids will headline Respectable Street's weekly "To Hell With Poverty" party. Get tickets for both shows here.
Keep New Times Broward-Palm Beach Free... Since we started New Times Broward-Palm Beach, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of South Florida, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering South Florida with no paywalls.
