Hollis Brown take their name from a Bob Dylan song and play classic, soulful rock and roll with Americana roots, the kind of band that sounds best in a small room. An Evening With format gives them the whole night instead of a short slot. If you like guitar bands in the Tom Petty and Heartbreakers tradition, this is an easy early-evening pick.
What to expect
Mercury Lounge's narrow front bar opens onto a small back room with a low stage, which puts you just feet from the band. Expect a long set with no opener.
Good to know
- Take the F train to 2 Av; the club is on East Houston Street.
- The early start leaves time for dinner or another show afterward.
- It's a small room, so arrive early for a spot up front.
- Bring ID for the bar.
