Sense Field

Last year, Sense Field played SpiritFest alongside Eddie Money, Jonny Lang and the Burger King Rock and Roll All-Stars, a roster guitarist Chris Evenson called "the strangest lineup we've ever been on." For its return to the region, Sense Field gets much more reasonable concert complements, such as fashionable, female-fronted pop-punkers Damone and hook-happy newcomers Soundtrak. It's also pushing a brand-new record, Living Outside, which delves into deeper and darker lyrical territory (turns out no one gets out alive) without ditching its breezy, orchestra-inspired arrangements or underlying optimism.
