Loudermilks, The New Familiars tonight (3/19/11)

Loudermilks Long-standing Charlotte music fans will remember the Edwards bros. — Alan and Chad — as the prime movers behind Lou Ford, rural rockers as infamous for biting the feeding hand as for their aphorism-rich songs and transcendent sibling harmonies. They’ve cobbled together a new five-piece (including ex-Vetiver bassist Brent Dunn), added some fiddle and keys, and whipped up a setlist of new songs plus a few unrecorded LF stowaways. But the fundamentals remain unimpeachable: These gents write some of the catchiest, most heart-rending country rock around. It’s all rather sad, but comfortingly familiar. With the Overmountain Men and Ken Will Morton & the Wholly Ghosts. $8. Snug Harbor. www.snugrock.com. (John Schacht)

The New Familiars Fans of Charlotte’s finest roots-rock quartet The New Familiars have had this day marked on their calendar for some time. Only problem was that lineup changes and other delays kept pushing it back. But the day has finally arrived for people to get their hands on the band’s latest album, Between the Moon and Morning Light. No doubt that it was well worth the wait. With Danny Barnes. $10. Visulite Theatre. www.visulite.com. (Jeff Hahne)
