Local indie band, The Juliets, rock The Blind Pig

This past Thursday one of Ann Arbor’s best known venues, The Blind Pig, hosted four local bands.
Headlining the show were The Juliets composed of Jeremy Freer, Kip Donlon, Scott Masson and EMU students Kaylan Mitchell and Sarah Myers.
This classic indie pop band performed for one hour, and from the crowds response, it went off without a hitch.
“The band played well together and they were very solid,” said Jared Walker, a senior music performance major.
“I do not think however that everyone has to play all the time. There can be silent parts. Over all I think the show was good it could have gone just a little further.”
The Juilets performed with a variety of music instruments, ranging from traditional guitars and drums all the way to Orchestral instruments such as the violin and cello. It was a nice clash between the classical and rock sounds that did not sound unpleasant to the ears.
“It was interesting to hear this particular combination of instruments pull together to create The Juliets,” stated EMU alumni Cassie Harris.
“I highly enjoyed hearing something that traditionally does not go together. The Juliets were extremely entertaining and that got people off their seats and start dancing.”
