Air Waves + Laura Stevenson and the Cans

Helmed by singer-songwriter Nicole Schneit, local outfit Air Waves performs unassuming folk-pop songs that partake of a bittersweet nostalgia. Schneit's high, watery voice isn't conventionally pretty, but it's a powerfully intimate instrument. The band's new LP is Dungeon Dots. Quirky local folkie Laura Stevenson opens with her band, the Cans.
