It’s no secret that you can count on New World Brewery to be hosting the best up-and-coming music across all genres. This January show would’ve been easy to forget come Best Of The Bay nominating time, but the salt from our almost tears is still on the sweater we wore that night. Mothers’ Kristine Leschper possesses one of the most unique and captivating deliveries in indie rock, and her Athens, Georgia band can go from quiet to cacophony at the drop of a dime.
