Those Darlins are back at the 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis, touring in support of their third studio album Blur the Line (out now on Oh Wow Dang).
Opening up were local Pink Mink and New York's Gambles (aka Matthew Daniel Siskin).
Gambles is a one-man-folk singer, whose look and sound resemble a young Bob Dylan, but perhaps leaning closer to Leonard Cohen (which we'll get to later). He would often just take sing in the crowd, which would have been cool if people weren't talking so much (since his unplugged acoustic guitar can only produce so much sound).
As you can see from his setlist, the majority of his songs were from his debut album Trust (released last month on Alternative Distribution Alliance), with a few exception, like the Cohen cover song, "Chelsea Hotel". Another thing is that he skipped "You Are The Truth" (which sounded like it was switched to the last song) because his girlfriend (Nola) requested "Animal".
We've covered about seven Those Darlins shows, and I've personally attended about five of those shows. This is the first time that I've seen the band with the new bassist, Adrian.
As expected, the band practically played all their new songs from their latest album Blur The Line, leaving a little room to fit in a couple of old singles ("Screws Get Loose", "Night Jogger", "Be Your Bro") and a couple of cover songs (including Alex Chilton's "Free Again" and V.U.'s "White Light/White Heat" for the encore).
"Screws Get Loose" received the best reaction from the fans, probably because it's an older song (note that no songs from their debut album were played), but that was played fairly early in. You can tell fans aren't familiar with the new material yet, despite a great "eye-popping" performance of "Mystic Mind" by Jessie.
Also, this was the second to their last night with Gambles, all support will be handled by Diane Coffee on November 2nd. So they dedicated "Why Can't I Change?" to Nola.
Those Darlins are currently on tour in support of Blur The Line. I suggest getting a copy of the latest album before you see them.
