LIVE: Plants and Animals, More Tiny Giants

A lovely little double header in Crawdaddy this Thursady 5th. Montreal (already they're in my good books) 3-piece Plants and Animals treated the crowd to a very enjoyable evening, ably assisted by up and coming locals More Tiny Giants. Plants and Animals referred to themselves as being from Montreal, in the country of Quebec. A bit of nationalism always adds to an evening in my view. They were, particularly early in their set, a delight, with the first few tracks offering a great example of bubble-wrapped melodious indie, which does not even surprise when offered by a Canadian group anymore. Faerie Dance was a noticeably elegant track in this early period. They progressively upped the pace of their set, and towards the end of their set the music got a little heavier, and slightly less palatable, but only in comparison to the gorgeous opening fifteen minutes. More Tiny Giants gave a far livelier support set; their edgy aggressive energetic style is catching many people's attention, and I look forward to seeing them progress in the coming months.
