Sometimes it's the simpler, the better. There's something haunting and beautiful in the spartan music of this Austin trio - it's just one guitar (John McGee), a cello (David Moss) andone voice (Grace Rowland). It's lyrical pop, without the pretense that usually comes with adding bass, drums or quirky keyboards. You can really hear all three elements - McGee's deft plucking interweaving between the lines of Moss' delicate and melancholy cello,mcts 70-562 Rowland's clear and jazz-tinged voice floating ethereally over the top. This is not mopey folk music, either - on tunes like "Boys and Girls" the jazz chords come fast 70-620 exam and furious, ultimately taking the music in dreamy and wholly unexpected directions. The band shares this bill with Boston's "avant-gaze" band Plumeri.A exam 70-630 longtime fixture of the music scene in Charleston, Aaron Levy is a singer, songwriter and guitarist who also plays piano and bass, and he's been in lots of bands. He's fearless. Levy assembled White Rhino in 2007, with vocalist Katie Coleman, multi-instrumentalist Ben Jacobs and drummer Daniel Crider. "I'd put an ad on Craigslist that described sort of a vision for a band with three-part harmony in it," Levy said. "I wanted it to be kind of a Crosby, Stills, & Nash kind of thing. The ad was strictly for a female backing vocalist. Katie responded to the ad, came over to play, and sang really well. ...at the end of the day, she said, 'Oh, by the way,exam 70-640 I also play viola.' I thought that was awesome." Levy and his cohorts list among their influences: Neil Young, Ryan Adams, the Decemberists, Radiohead and Pink Floyd. Accordingly, their music is vaguely country-tinged pop and rock, with viola. Listen & learn: At 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 19 at the Sentient Bean, 13 E. Park Ave.GORILLA ZOERaspy-thuggy Atlanta rapper Gorilla Zoe, nee Alonzo Mathis, replaced Young Jeezy in the group Boyz N da Hood. With lyrics concerned chiefly with the illegal drug trade, strippers, booze and bling (do they still use that word?) he charted high with his debut album, Welcome to the Zoo; his biggest single has been "Hood Figga" (that's the altered-for-radio title).
