Black Country, New Road with special guest Dagmar Zuniga

Black Country, New Road play the Longhorn Ballroom on Tuesday, October 20, with special guest Dagmar Zuniga opening. It's an all-ages show, so you can bring whoever you want.

If you've followed them, you know they're a six-piece that doesn't stay in one place for long. Their debut, For the First Time, earned a Mercury Prize nomination. The follow-up, Ants From Up There, shifted into art-rock meeting chamber pop. When singer Isaac Wood left shortly after that, the band wrote a new set of songs to tour, which they eventually released as the live album Live at Bush Hall.

Their third studio album, produced by James Ford, changes things again. This time, vocal duties and most of the songwriting are split among the three female members—Tyler Hyde, Georgia Ellery, and May Kershaw. The sound draws on folk, prog, baroque pop, and alt-rock, with nods to Joanna Newsom, Randy Newman, Fiona Apple, and Janis Ian. It's a different kind of record from the ones that came before it.

Before they were recording, the trio first came together as musicians at The Windmill in Brixton, playing alongside peers like Squid and Black Midi. The Quietus once called them "the best band in the world."

Doors open at 6:30 PM, and the show starts at 8:00 PM. The Longhorn Ballroom is at 216 Corinth St. in Dallas.
