Event details: The Twilight Hours + The Pretty Demons
Description
Matt Wilson, John Munson shine on new project the Twilight HoursLavish harmonies and firey fretwork speckle duos debut, Stereo NightGrowing old gracefully is a trick few rock musicians master. Most commercially successful musical graybeards play it safe and shallowly ape past glories, while those who never broke through typically quit altogether, embittered and ready to leave the rocking to the next generation. More aging rockers should take their cues from Matt Wilson and John Munson, two exquisite pop songwriters (and fortysomething dads) whose sound remains as invigorated and ambitious as ever with their new project, the Twilight Hours.
THE TWILIGHT HOURS
Stereo Night Formerly the creative engine behind early-90s outfit Trip Shakespeare (who had the misfortune of perfecting their sophisticated Beatlesesque pop right when grunges gutter aesthetic swept the nation), the pair parted ways for most of the 90s before reuniting as the Flops for sporadic, low-key gigs during the 2000s. Stereo Night, Twilight Hours 10-track debut, is the first professionally recorded album from the duo since 1991. Few follow-up acts are worth waiting nearly two decades for, but this is one of them. Lavish harmonies, emotionally resonant lyricism, and some surprisingly fiery fretwork carry the day, coming together to make Stereo Night a classic cocktail of quirky and heartfelt adult pop.
