The Pipettes


For anyone who thought the Go Team! weren't exuberant enough, consider, if you will, The Pipette's. The recent toast of South by Southwest, this Brit indie band are an anachronistic shot of sixties-style girl group pop and make out party dance rock. Their debut, We Are the Pipettes, is laced with hand-claps, swelling strings, gorgeous three part harmonies and chant-along tales of teenage romance repurposed for a modern Motown sensibility. If this doesn't make you want to dance, then it's time to retire. They perform on Monday at Great Scott. 9p.m. 18+ Tickets $12. Great Scott 1222 Comm. Ave., Allston. 617-566-9014. thepipettes.co.uk
