Fruit Bats w/ Sarah Klang

Fruit Bats play Mohawk Austin on Saturday, November 21, with Sarah Klang opening. It's a double bill that pulls from two different sides of the Atlantic: Fruit Bats are from Chicago, Illinois, and Sarah Klang comes from Gothenburg, Sweden. If you've never seen them together, this is a good chance to catch them on the same stage.

Fruit Bats has spent years building a reputation for a particular kind of melodic, song-focused indie rock. The songs usually sit in that sweet spot between folk and pop, with an ear for a strong hook and a voice that carries the melody without needing to shout. It's the kind of music that works just as well on a quiet afternoon as it does in a room full of people, and that's a fair description of what they bring to a live set.

Sarah Klang opens the night. Coming from Gothenburg, she brings her own approach to the stage, so you'll get two distinct voices in one evening. Between her and Fruit Bats, the bill covers a fair bit of ground before the night is through.

Doors open at 7 PM, and the show starts at 8 PM. Tickets are $30, and it's an all-ages show, so you can bring whoever you want. That puts the whole thing at Mohawk Austin on Saturday, November 21.
