Aunts and Uncles at the Slice. Photo by Richard Amery The Darby and Joan Club were back at the Slice with Aunt and Uncles on Wednesday, Aug. 24.

While I missed the Darby and Joan Club, I arrived in time to see Aunts and Uncles make unique pop/ quirky folk music featuring some innovative violin playing mixed with glockenspiel and what looked like a ukulele with a little bit longer neck.

They set down a cool groove which was almost hypnotic.

The lead singer, wielding a pink Stratocaster, had a distinctive, high pitched voice which gave the band a Smashing Pumpkins playing folk music type of sound.

 They had approximately 30 people enraptured by their music.
