Indie Rock Band 'Aurical' Plays Brighton Bar

Aurical draws influences from grunge, modal jazz, and Motown; folk, soul, and French art song. Their debut album, Something to Say (Gallant Music) received critical praise.

M: Music and Musicians magazine wrote, “Aurical
finds the duo in pop-rock mode, and their cleverness comes through right away,” while Wildy’s World said, “Things get really interesting on 'Redhead Girl', with a piano style that sounds like a cross between Ben Folds and Tori Amos.  The most original and intriguing work on the album, ‘Redhead Girl’ shows Aurical's ability to push the envelope and do it
well.”
