Earlier this week, instrumentally-focused math rock bands Chipper Jones and Cleanup played at Cheer Up Charlie’s. Both bands are part of a current trend that’s seeing a revival of styles of indie rock that peaked in the late 90s and early 2000s. Many will be thrilled to see this style of intricate, complex rock increasing in popularity once again. And it’s great to see even further diversity within our already multi-faceted Texas music scene. Both bands are incredibly enjoyable live, thanks in part to the nature of the style of music they play, dominated by fingers working fretboards with fury and relentless percussionists.
