New Band Love alert! I went to The Echo Saturday to check out an Australian band whose EP had landed in my inbox and subsequently into my songs of 2019 playlist.  I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it was not the entire main floor of the venue turned into some sort of mosh pit. I found an enviable perch in the back and, once able to breathe, quickly fell in love with the dynamic energy and rock chords of The Faim (I think it was the keys…I’m a sucker for piano in a rock song).
