This is true! The vocalist of The Grates, Patience, is the embodiment of cuteness. How can you resist a lovely, bouncy girl with an adorable, golden shinny dress and a yellow cape? Her gleeful presence is just contagious.
The Australian band paid a visit to the Bean and shared the stage with three other local bands (Verb the Adjective Noun, Viennagram and, my favorites, YCBW) at the Mid East.
Their music came in as a lovely surprise. I mean, it seemed they were unknown to the larger crowd, including myself. Best description? In a few... they're a combination of pop with grunge, punk and electro. One thing is for sure: their energetic vibe is bound to infect all listeners.
Patience joined everybody on the dance floor, and they loved her. In between a dancing frenzy, hilarious remarks about spirit fingers and elbow indicators for hi-fives, she became one of them. "And they said Boston was a hard crowd. You guys are amazing!" she said.DO listen to their tracks and dare to dance to a couple of them... possibly with minor garments in front of a mirror "Cameron Diaz in Charlie's Angels" style. And be on the look out! They've scheduled a full US-tour to keep on spreading the love the way only aussies can.
Note: Pay attention to their drummer, Alana. This lovely lady is a-mazing!
