FREAK FOLK | Chandler Travis Philharmonic

by

There are few groups more quirky than this nine-person, Boston-based band. Playing in support of its latest album, "Waving Kissyhead, Vol. 2 & 1," Chandler Travis Philharmonic combines a counterculture rock sensibility with tinges of big-band horns and general zaniness. CTP self-describes as "alternative dixieland" and "omnipop," but the bottom line is this: if you're looking for music performed by talented oddballs who don't take themselves too seriously, the Chandler Travis Philharmonic may be the band for you.

The Chandler Travis Philharmonic plays Saturday, June 3, at The Little Theatre, Theater 1, 240 East Avenue. 8 p.m. $15-$20. 258-0400; thelittle.org; chandlertravis.com.
