Alright, Canada, you’ve done right. To make up for the whole
Bieber situation, let’s turn our attention toward the alt-country,
Toronto-born band The Sadies. Their music covers it all — heavy
instrumental breaks, upbeat tempos and a dose of twang. After 18
albums together, the band members’ comfort with one another and
their musical exploration are pretty evident and exciting live. Pack
a joint (and maybe sport a cowboy hat) to their show on June 6 at
Portland’s Star Theater.
