Sat. Nite Duets, The Fatty Acids, and Catacombz at Turner Hall Ballroom
There are plenty of words to describe Milwaukee’s Sat. Nite Duets—shambling, scrappy, Pavement-worshipping—though one word that’s often overlooked is “hardworking.” The likeably shaggy lo-fi guitar-pop band charmed blogs and GQ alike back in 2010 with its One Nite Only EP, which GQ giddily compared to Pavement’s Slanted And Enchanted. One Nite was certainly a winning collection of songs, and included some fine examples of vintage ’90s-era indie-rock, loose-limbed Basement Tapes-style Americana, and twisty-turny arena-rock ragers. The group followed up with another EP, Wilder Dreams, in 2011, as well as a slew of oddball music videos stuffed with skateboards, chain saws, and lousy green-screen effects. Tonight, The Fatty Acids and Catacombz join the band in celebrating the release of its new full-length, Summer Of Punishment.
