Berklee Genre Jumble
TT the Bear's (10 Brookline St, Cambridge)
Tonight, 9pm, $8
Berklee is well-known for mixing it up, and the school moves on from a music for film conference to a genre jumble at TT's tonight. The mixed-up melange features The Help, which "blends rock, pop, punk, funk, blues, and jazz into a sound purely its own"; Shea Rose, called "the black Rickie Lee Jones"; With Engines, a pop-folk hybrid; and (our favorite name) Black Fortress of Opium, soulful folk with female vox and electric guitars. It sounds like a delightful mix of sounds—a marathon of genres, if you will—at an affordable price. Check it out tonight if you can.
