Providence, Rhode Island’s Deer Tick has become the darling of the alternative-rock world, and while the press may have difficulty labeling the band (a certification of indie cred), Rolling Stone, USA Today, and even The Wall Street Journal have showered the group with accolades. Led by singer and guitarist John McCauley, the septet channels Nashville through its New England roots, and has been commended for its brutal honesty and sophisticated sarcasm.
Monday 5/19. $16-18, 8:30pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. 245-4980.
