Crowded Rooms at Askew / by James Mazza

Eleven o’clock? Really? For the headliner? I’m feeling a bit old. On the other hand, it was well worth the wait to hear Crowded Rooms play to a very crowded room. Synth pop-rock in a charismatic live show, leaving the audience at Askew begging for an encore. I want to say the music is Suede via Purity Ring with maybe a bit of early Radiohead? Perhaps I’m listening to too much Britpop lately. Incredible show that Higgs and company were magnanimous in letting me photograph.
