The Brute Chorus @ The North Star.

Tonight, we saw The Brute Chorus play at the North Star Bar. The East Londoners stopped by Philly on their DIY tour on the way to SXSW.

They played a brief but lively set before a decent-sized crowd. Frontman James Steel sings like a Delta bluesman and dances like Elvis, and the whole band was tight throughout the set. They meandered from eerie tunes to rockabilly to danceable punk stylings that you could sing along to.
