Lorenzo & Co., New Weirdos, Battle of Heart and Mind, and Fig Season

CRITIC’S PICK: Emerging out of the COVID quarantine came a lot of new bands, a lot of them friends who finally had the time on their hands to make music together. One such band is this group of five, Lorenzo & Co. I first saw these folks at a Boggs show where they convinced me they were ones to follow. Earlier this summer, they released a new single and music video, “Sleepwalking,” full of high energy rock riffs, funky beats and classic indie vocals. The music video is what I imagine a rehearsal night is like for these folks, fun and full of life. It’s playful, upbeat, and fits the song perfectly. Don’t miss your chance to see them live at Boggs on Oct. 6 with New Weirdos and Fig Season. — Jessica Goodson
