While Australia fancies in the upcoming Splendour In The Grass and the indie/pop music it brings with it, folk guns and Grammy award winners; The Punch Brothers have snuck in under the radar to put on a memorable evening.

The Punch Brothers brought their Summer tour to the Tower Theatre last Saturday night, and were welcomed by yet another near sold out audience. That's becoming common place at the Tower Theatre, and with good reason, but unfortunately, not without some issues. I'll touch on that in just a bit.

Chris Thile may be the guy in Punch Brothers who gets most of the attention, but that would be selling the quintet short.

Maybe it’s because the band makes it seem like it’s an attainable dream to be a rock star.
