Upon first glance, Franklin, Tenn., indie-rock trio Colony House—named for an apartment complex in their hometown that all the band members have lived in—play a catchy, digestible style of pop that's easy to tap your toes and sing along to. But underneath all that sunny guitar and warm textural layers is a gritty rock feel and contemplative lyrics that ground the band's sound, making a listening experience that's entertaining but emotionally substantial. Lead singer/guitarist and principal songwriter Caleb Chapman echoes that in a press release about the band's debut full-length album, When I Was Younger, released in July: "Creating this record had such a strong set of contrasting emotions: joy, hope, frustration, sorrow, uncertainty, confidence." Knox Hamilton and Little Barefoot will also perform. (Kolbie Stonehocker)
