The New Familiars Even if I wasn’t hosting the monthly Off the Record event, I’d still be attending this event. After all, I created the series because it was something I wanted to see — onstage interviews combined with acoustic performances in a unique Unplugged-meets-Storytellers concert. This month’s show will feature Charlotte folk-rockers the New Familiars discussing their songs, lyrics and songwriting. (Jeff Hahne)
