If another good touring opportunity Aaron Shust, Cody Collier Nov. 3 Blue Gate Theatre Shipshewana comes up, they’ll likely do that instead. You can catch Clutch, along with openers Devin Accidentals Nov. 5 C2G Music Hall Fort Wayne Townsend Project and The Obsessed when they stop in Columbus, Ohio on New Year’s Acumen Nation w/Cold Cave, Drab Majesty, Stabbing, Westward Sept. 29 Metro Chicago Eve.

The month Against Me! w/Bleached, The Dirty Nil Oct. 4 House of Blues Cleveland kicks off with a Beth Hart show on October 1 and continues with Boz Scaggs October 5, AJ Croce Oct. 22 Old Town School Chicago Hoodie Allen October 11, UFO and Saxon on October 14, Soulfly and Cannabis Corpse Alice Glass Oct. 7 House of Blues Cleveland October 15, Chris Isaak October 17, Queens of the Stone Age October 18, Mutemath Alison Krauss w/David Gray Oct. 5 Rosemont Theatre Rosemont, IL October 25, Jerry Seinfeld October 26 and Buckingham McVie October 27.

Oct. 8 Bogart’s Cincinnati Pleasant, Michigan, just about three hours north of The Fort. Original members have been Andrew WK Oct. 18 St. Andrews Hall Detroit popping up to perform with the band throughout the tour, but these shows promise a full Anita Renfroe Mar. 10 ‘18 Shipshewana Event Center Shipshewana reunion of original members, including singer Lou Gramm. Until this tour, the original Anthony Gomes, Nick Schnebelen Band Oct. 11 Beachland Ballroom Cleveland members have not performed as a band since 1980, this is a pretty big deal for Foreigner Anthony Gomes Nov. 4 Key Palace Theatre Redkey fans, as the band that has been touring over the past decade or so features just one original Antiserum, Monxx Nov. 10 The Intersection Grand Rapids member, Mick Jones, and a bunch of replacement players who are awesome but don’t date Aqueous Nov. 16 Lincoln Hall Chicago from the formation of the band. Ari Hest & Chrissie Poland Oct. 26 B-Side, One Lucky Guitar Fort Wayne Modern English The Arkells Nov. 8 Beachland Ballroom Cleveland have announced makeup dates for their 2017 North American Tour. The Arlo Guthrie Sept. 27-28 The Ark Ann Arbor band had to cancel a run of earlier shows due to guitarist Gary McDowell’s throat surgery. Arlo Guthrie w/Abe Guthrie, Sarah Lee Guthrie Oct. 15 Egyptian Room Indianapolis The band has a new album out called Take Me to the Trees, but mostly, I would think, fans Asleep at the Wheel Apr. 13 ‘18 Blue Gate Theatre Shipshewana are going to want them to sing their classic hit “I Melt With You” at the beginning, in the Astrid S Sept. 22 Subterranean Chicago middle and at the end of the show. I’m not sure American audiences even know Modern Avett Brothers Nov. 9-11 Chicago Theatre Chicago English ever made any other songs, but we all have a chance to sample some of them when Azealia Banks Oct. 3 The Intersection Grand Rapids they stop in Detroit November 5 and Chicago the following night.

and whistles but the genre’s ability to con- nect with people, to give voice to their suf- fering, and that’s what he’s always tried to do and will continue to do as long as he has a stage and guitar and a mic. “It’s always been about touching those raw emotions that so many of us deal with. That doesn’t mean that every song has to have some sort of deep message or meaning to it. But for the most part, it’s extremely important that in country music we maintain some semblance of what has made country music so special all these years. And that’s the ability to reach out and touch people’s hearts and lives and become the voice of so many people that have feelings they have trouble expressing.” SPINS From Page 9

from some dusty, antique steamer trunk found in the attic of said yellow house. It felt like it had come from another era, not from a bunch of young 20-something dudes from Brooklyn. 2009’s Veckatimest contin- ued the precise chamber pop that Yellow House had introduced us to. On 2012’s Shields, the band sounded looser, like the guys had been on a Neil Young and Crazy Horse binge and spent a few months in the studio lashing out at each other with guitars pointed defensively. With all of these albums, Grizzly Bear have never sounded like a band stuck in one place. They seemed to continue to move for- ward even if they could’ve lingered a little longer in the sitting parlor and played more beautiful music. Painted Ruins, the band’s new album, is more forward movement, but this time there’s room to move on this al- bum. They seem to have moved the clutter out of the way and have made an album that is loose and open to interpretation. Album opener “Wasted Acres” is sultry and groovy, like a Tennessee Williams play put to music. Droste sounds more confident on here than he has since “Cheerleader.” It’s a stunning opener. “Mourning Sound” is quite a different beast altogether. It’s a sparse, bass-driven track that leaves all the nuance and mystery at the studio door. I’ve heard critiques of the track as being too sim- ple and not sounding like Grizzly Bear. It does have its own sound in the Grizzly Bear discography, but why is that a bad thing? Droste takes the lead for most of the song, with Daniel Rossen coming in on the bridge. It’s a great change of pace. “Four Cypress- es” could pass for a St. Vincent track with it’s jaunty rhythm, but the vocals reveal that Grizzly Bear sound. What is that sound? Part chamber pop, part jazz-inflected experimental, part indie choral group. There are 70s influences, vo- cal group influences and possibly some folk roots as well. But with these four guys all of the influences come together to create something completely new. Painted Ruins sounds like Grizzly Bear in a good place. These tracks are loose but vital. Fifteen years in, there seems to be no slowing down for our favorite “Bear” band. (John Hubner) September 21, 2017------www.whatzup.com------19 Hollywood Tiptoes into Fall Hollywood is nervous.
