Whitehorse at Soda Bar<\/strong>
\nWednesday, Nov. 30<\/strong><\/p>\n

This husband-wife duo have released several albums and EPs together featuring their infectious harmonies. In the past, Whitehorse leaned towards folk and southwestern rock, but their latest release is a unique project featuring modern versions of blues-rock songs from the 1950s and ’60s. The two craft a large sound when performing live, due in part to their use of layers of live looping. The intimacy of Soda Bar (3615 El Cajon Blvd., Normal Heights) is an ideal way to see such a dynamic act. Visit sodabarmusic.com<\/a> for tickets ($10).<\/p>\n
