This is a past event.

Gotye, Missy Higgins, Jonti 

When: Mon., Oct. 1, 7 p.m. 2012
Price: $25-70

Is Gotye's massive and massively weird hit a sign of things to come? Is all the catchy, warped bedroom indie of the past few years now arriving for the masses, even if hedged and compromised via groups like fun., Foster the People and this twerp from Australia? It seems almost inevitable in a post-Garden State world. Spare and poetic (the title's lifted from an Elliott Smith song), Goyte's success scoffs at explosive EDM by simply existing on the radio. It's a wee bit of the twee indie sensibility brought into the world of merciless party music, and that's enough to appear innovative. With Missy Higgins and Jonti. —Brandon Soderberg
