The Bends with The Braymores

The Bends play Fine Line on Wednesday, November 4, with The Braymores opening. The Bends build their songs around a gallery of relatable, colorful characters — like the overbored hipster chick in ripped jeans and a tight t-shirt — and they'll be bringing that character-driven writing to the stage.

Opening for them are The Braymores, an alternative folk rock group from Chicago. They're fronted by Matt Tilles on vocals and guitar, with Keegan Melaniphy on guitar, Russell Oren on drums and Connor Kohanzo on bass. It's a full band coming in from out of town to set the table for the main act.

Fine Line has been open since 1987 and sits in the heart of the Warehouse District, on the main level of the Consortium Building just a few blocks from First Avenue. It's a spot most of us know by heart, right in the thick of the neighborhood. The show is for ages 18 and over, and there's a strict ticket limit per customer and household, so if you're planning to bring a group, it's worth grabbing yours sooner rather than later.

Doors open at 7 PM and the show starts at 8 PM. Between the two bands, you've got a full night of music in one of the city's most familiar rooms.
