A Hundred in the Hand

Wednesday, October 13 Turner Ballroom

It's been awhile since I wrote last.  Sorry about that.  I was going to try to update this blog daily, then it went to weekly, and then during the summer it dropped to monthly.  Well even though it's beautiful out now, I'm going to make an effort to get back into my daily or at least weekly routine of providing information of great bands coming to our area.  So if you are still with me, I hope you continue to.  If not, then I'm fine with writing to myself. 
   
     A Hundred in the Hand is a band from lovely New York, New York, which doesn't surprise me much.  They have incorporated a great duo balance that I love from other bands in that area, such as Sleigh Bells.  It's amazing to see how after one band is created using heavier music created by a male performer and beautiful vocals provided by a female performer, that other bands try to mimic that.  But unlike the heavy riffs that sleigh bells uses for their musical backing, A Hundred in the Hand uses a more funk/Disco sound.  The effect is equally enjoyable where as the latter made me want to mosh, the previous one makes me want to shakey shake it. 
They are the opening act for Temper Trap at Turner Hall, and I'm really excited to go see this show.
