Sudden Shows: Fair and Kind, tonight at the Tonic Room

Life comes at you fast, and so does great local music. Welcome to the first edition of Sudden Shows.

Performing tonight at the Tonic Room is Fair and Kind, a collaboration of two talented musicians, both unique and accomplished in their own rights and who also happen to be related. The sister-brother duo of Arthi and Anand create Fair and Kind. The two grew up in Chicago and have been influenced by 80s pop and world music alike. Their first album, A Little Past Twilight was recorded last year in Los Angeles and available through their website and on iTunes.

Their music is powerful and focused, depending on beautiful and rhythmic guitar tracks that seem to grow and multiply through the course of the songs. The swell of music is tempered by Arthi’s consistently elegant vocals and the resulting dichotomy is the well tuned product of years learning music together.

This is the only show they have scheduled in the near future and if you’ve never been, The Tonic Room is a great place to see music. Small, dark, great beer and a petri dish for creative cultures. It’s the perfect evening show to help you forget your Monday.

You can find the music at 2447 N. Halsted. Doors open at 8 pm, cover is a paltry 5 bucks and Fair and Kind will be joined by Adam Hitchell and The Gorilla Press.
