Eight Gigs: Cross Atlantic

Mon., Jan. 23, 7 p.m., Goldfield Trading Post, $8

Excuse me while I briefly slip into Nashville speak, but Cross Atlantic is basically the IRL version of Scarlett and Gunnar. For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about, just know that songbird Karli Chayne and Englishman James Sinclair Stott met in line at a Nashville coffee shop, and now they make some seriously sweet, lilting tunes together. Though they don’t have much in the way of music released, their chemistry is evident in their video for “Mercy,” and the pair seems perfectly positioned for Americana-pop success. 1620 J Street, www.crossatlanticmusic.net.
