Fat Heaven, Chew, Sic Tic, Freecare

Dogs, 40s, and Rock n' Roll


Chew haven't been playing together for very long, but already the Atlanta trio — featuring drummer Sarah Wilson, bassist Brandon Pittman and guitarist Brett Reagan — has carved out a particularly strange sound that's hard to pin down. On their accurately titled single "Melt," for example, the band glide between spaced-out psych rock, glitchy electronic music and acid jazz in the space of five minutes without breaking a sweat. Watch the trio accomplish those sonic acrobatics in a live setting when they perform at the Firehouse alongside nnAnn and the Secret Midnight Band.
