BEST LOCAL BAND/ARTIST

The New Familiars

Staff Pick

The band’s take on Americana and folk gets infused with a good bit of rock ethic and rhythms that can give you goose bumps. As the crowds grow, the local shows are getting more sporadic, and they recently paid thanks to fans with a free, packed Neighborhood Theatre gig. Catch ’em on the cheap while you can! Runner-ups: The Sea of Cortez and The Avett Brothers.
