Tonight the two-piece formerly known as Dear Hearts will be making its first live appearance since expanding to a threesome (they added a drummer) and changing their moniker to Walking Boss. The band is led by singer and guitarist Karen Graves, whose name, if not her face, should be familiar to Columbus ex-pats. In addition to playing in Magic City while in Columbus, Graves was a regular contributor to The Other Paper’s music section for many years before moving to New York in 2007.
Rounding out the bill at Don Pedro tonight are Brooklyn trio Party Lights, punky five-piece Family Fun, and Bradley Dean & the Terminals, who will be making their live debut.
