Seabird with Seeing Skies and Rob Laliberte

I wanted to preview tonight's show by local emo kids Seeing Skies in this week's issue but just ran out of room, so this will have to do: Seeing Skies have been one of my favorite bands of the Square Room's Sound Off competition so far. They're not for everybody--this is some earnest music, and their Get Up Kids/Jimmy Eat World brand of rock is a few years out of step--but they're top-notch musicians and songwriters. For somebody who thinks Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle" is one of the great singles of last decade, this is a fun band.
