Jason Collett - Rat A Tat Tat
Capturing ramshackle romances beneath crafty, crackling guitars, tail-feather shaking bass and happily lop-sided drums, Broken Social Scene’s laconic Lothario sling funky, greasy-spoon blues and off the cuff alt-pop chock full of jangly slang. “Rat A Tat Tat,” compacts slacker-backed blasts and rascally character assassination into backwoods ballads packing loose and groovy tropical rhythms for shifty, grifter tangos. Hiding refined treasures inside each gruff and grizzled tune, subtle choruses glow as off-beat accents rise - slyly disguising Collett’s articulate wit and savvy studio uses inside bohemian dreams and troubadour moves. Collett visits Madison’s Majestic April 6th along with special guests Zeus and Bermuda. Instead of the typical show in which each act plays its own set, all take the stage together, playing songs by all three.
