Tue 5/6 @ 8PM
Aimee Mann and Ted Leo each has a well-established career on her/his own, with a cadre of fans devoted to his/her distinctive music.
Aimee Mann first hit the radar with her Boston-based band Til Tuesday and its huge 1985 hit “Voices Carry.” She followed the band’s 1988 breakup with a long, productive solo career, in which she has become noted for her melancholy songs and downbeat deliver.
East coast punker rocker Ted Leo, a decade younger than the 53-year-old Mann, became known for the smart punk rock he and his band the Pharmacists began releasing in the late ’90s.
Two years ago, this unlikely duo joined forces to form The Both, melding his forceful energy with her precision and sensitivity. They’ve just released their self-titled debut album, and hit the road again.
They’ll be at the Beachland Ballroom with Nick Diamonds opening.
Tickets are $20.
