LES RACQUET
Brooklyn trio Les Racquet scoops up earnest indie-pop, frantic prog-rock, creamy doo-wop and jangly jazz in a wide net, pushing it all through a spiky guitar-driven sieve that blends the disparate elements without sanding off their edges. Despite pronouncing their name “less racket,” the trio kicks up a maelstrom — witness their angular assault on Dave Brubeck’s cool jazz standard “Take Five” — yet the melody always reigns supreme.
