Ark 316 S. Main, Ann Arbor

Sparse, pulsating folk-rock soaked in 70s nostalgia by this English band led by singer-songwriter, and former dance music DJ, Fin Greenall. “The sound here is rooted in folk, but buoyed by Greenhall’s upbringing in dance and electronic music always grooves and pulses,” writes Under the Radar in a review of his brand-new album The City is Coming to Erase It All. “The feeling pervades that the listener could just as easily be at a downtempo and deeply atmospheric dance party as a folk club.” $35.
