The smart, angular music of San Francisco’s the Fresh & Onlys has been catching fire both at home and across the pond. Mix one part psychedelia with one part lo-fi garage rock, throw in a heaping wall of layered vocals and reverb-soaked guitars, and you’ll probably understand what these lads listened to. If you’re a fan of early Kinks, ’70s and ’80s guitar pop, and enjoy a little sloppiness thrown in, this band delivers on every level. They’re out on a West Coast tour that hits all the usual spots for a developing act on the verge of breaking into larger theaters and halls. 2574 21st Street, www.myspace.com/thefreshonlys.
