Our friends over at Noise Pop, Future Sounds, and The Owl Mag are presenting a stellar line-up for free at Cafe Du Nord tonight. Headlining will be the electro-pop act Lilofee, followed by Athens, Georgia’s own Twin Tigers. For those of you who don’t know Twin Tigers’, their new record, Gray Waves is a dynamic and delightfully colorful album that should not be ignored. Throw in our own shoegazers Stripmall Architecture and you have yourself a dynomite line-up that is worth paying for. Lucky for you, all you have to do is RSVP here before 5pm today and show up. Don’t miss this.

Deer Tick
If you are planning on missing the Lilofee show, it better be because Rhode Island’s Deer Tick is playing a free show at The Independent tonight. If you send an RSVP email to mogshows.deertick@gmail.com and show up wicked early (doors open @8pm) you may be able to see one of the more unique folk-rock bands out there right now.
