Dirty Impound

Grace Potter and the Nocturnals are about the most real rock ‘n’ roll creature trampling around the mainstream today. While their studio work shows finesse and radio pop instincts, live the band is all sweaty, all-in, all-the-time goodness. And throw in an opening set from Nocturnals’ guitarists Scott Tournet and Benny Yurco‘s side project, the glorious 70s-denim-rock-meets-post-Radiohead Blues & Lasers (who narrowly missed out on the Impound’s Best Albums of 2010 list with their righteous sophomore spinner After All We’re Only Human) and you’ve got one hell of a night in Boston. Fortunately for Impound-ers, photographer Mallory Finley was on the spot to snap up some of the vibe. She really captures what a good damn time these folks were having onstage. Makes you want to crank it up to 11, eh?
