Concert Preview: Elaine Greer, Hearts of Animals, The Dimes and Fiery Furnaces at the Proletariat

2006_02_01_ff.jpgWe hope you have your Saturday cleared out because The Proletariat is dishing out so much local music goodness this weekend that we just don't know what to do with ourselves. Besides Friday's Fatal Flying Guilloteens and Co., the Pro serves up the always great Elaine Greer, the indomitable Hearts of Animals and the band formerly known as The Dimes on Saturday, February 2. Oh, and the Fiery Furnaces happen to play, too.

Besides the big band on the line-up, the night is also big for Hearts of Animals, a.k.a. Mlee Marie Suprean, who celebrates the release of her 7", which comes out on Dull Knife Records. In fact, it's so special that custom silkscreened labels by David Wang accompany every copy for one night only. Rumor is it might be a landmark performance for the Dimes, who might finally release their new name. At the very least, if you haven't already, you need to catch a performance by up-and-coming Elaine Greer and her band.

The only excuse you have for missing this show is if you already bought your tickets for White Williams.

Fiery Furnaces, with Elaine Greer, Hearts of Animals & The Dimes
