Strong NotBad

On Saturday, there was a show at Smiling Buddha of mostly local bands. Because I was at The Garrison for another gig, I missed the first couple of sets (Feels Fine, The Mooks). I arrived just as Weakened Friends from Portland was taking the stage to a packed venue. This trio actually had a good number of fans because frontwoman Sonia Sturio also led defunct local band The Box Tiger a few years back. She seems to have found more success after moving to the US. Sturio still had the yowling vocals but the trio sounded more stripped down and with a harder edge than the previous outfit.
