British Columbia band Brasstronaut plays stripped-down sunshine with a smattering of clouds. R&B and other assorted traditions hang as faint as an impending rainbow. It's simple and sparse, so when it gets weird, there is all sorts of room to dodge or dance with the sonics as they ricochet and reverberate. There's plenty of brass - trumpets, trombones, and flugelhorns - to give it a narcotic royalty. It's as if the band is from another time; a time initially passed up for god knows what. Despite its apparent simplicity and craftwork, Brasstronaut is big, bold, and beautiful. Jacob's List warms up the proceedings.
Brasstronaut performs Monday, March 22, 9 p.m. at the Bug Jar, 219 Monroe Ave. $6-$8. 454-2966, bugjar.com.
