I Just Read About That…

[DID NOT ATTEND: March 13 & 14, 2026] Rainbow Kitten Surprise / Common People

With a name like Rainbow Kitten Surprise,  I thought this band would be a lot weirder.  I liked some of the songs I’d heard back in 2023 but they cancelled that tour.  Fever Pitch was a cool song with interesting components–lots of fun things going on in under 3 minutes.

The rest of their songs are similarly unexpected, and yet they aren’t quite as compelling.  I have heard  that their live show is unforgettable, but I had a lot going on and my son had just come home from school, so I blew off this show.

Common People are a newly formed band (2025) and they have a oxymoronically named classic indie sound.  They have five songs on Tidal and I like all of them.  Catchy, garagey, a good sound.  Fuzzy guitar solos, I’ll keep an eye on them because I’m definitely interested.
