Brennan Rose emailed a couple weeks back to give heads-up that he and Model A bandmates have “returned from the dead” after a three-year hiatus. The group, which formed in 2000, played a warm-up set at Naked Lounge Downtown (clip at www.youtube.com/modelavideo) and has some tracks up on SoundCloud (http://soundcloud.com/modela). But, for the Luigi’s gig, Rose promised something other than melodic rock with solid instrumentation. “We’re just trying to do something a little different,” Rose said, “and I think we have succeeded for the most part.” Find out at this all-ages show, which features the Speed of Sound in Seawater and A Lot Like Birds. 1050 20th Street, www.modelamusic.com.
