Eight Gigs: Silver Spoons

Welcome Silver Spoons back from tour at the band's first hometown show since it released its new EP, the aptly titled Four New Songs. The opener “First Impressions (Your Black Hair)” starts with lush cello, and you're like, “What?” Then the familiar vocals hit, and you're like “OK, here's Silver Spoons.” Silver Spoons already proved its experimental indie rock prowess with its debut self-titled full-length earlier this year, but Four New Songs definitely ups the intrigue. More cool song structures, more ambient electronic sounds, more silly vibes—reminiscent of a less-poppy Islands, for you Nicholas Thorburn fans. 1111 H Street, www.facebook.com/
