Where: The Replay Lounge, 946 Mass., Lawrence

Categories: Rock

Description: Drawing on influences ranging from the Beatles to Hum to Elvis Costello, Lawrence's Kelpie has been described as lounge-rock, a mathy singer/ songwriter project, progressive pop, "fancylad meandermusik" and everything in between. The very unique foursome takes plenty of chances with ambitious arrangements, all sewn together by tip-top melodiousness and a playful spirit. The band recently released its debut full-length "Hey Friends, It's Kelpie!" with Matt Talbot (formerly of Hum) and embarked on a European Tour with Koufax designed to wet the appetites of anyone with an open ear and a taste for outside-the-lines pop rock. The band took a brief hiatus to introduce a new guitarist, who purportedly plays all the parts of their recently departed keyboardist.

Headlights hails from Champaign, IL and plays "indie pop with a shoegaze aftertaste" that alternates male/female vocals and integrates lovely flavors like Wurlitzer and pedal steel. The band recently released a four-song EP titled "The Enemies" with Polyvinyl Records.

Rising Kansas City rockers Supernauts set the stage with an all-inclusive rock style that rivals The Redwalls.
