Sounds Of Hopscotch 2013 #13: Deleted Scenes

Hard as it may be to believe, it's once again time for Hopscotch. One of my favorite festival happenings, Hopscotch is a mere hop, skip, and a jump or two from the DC metro in lovely Raleigh, North Carolina. For the past few years they've been reeling in some seriously impressive lineups, and this year looks to be no different. Thanks to scheduling conflicts, I won't be heading down for this year's sonic extravaganza, but (not at all surprisingly) I've got recommendations on who to check out if you're heading to the fest.

Someone had to go down to Raleigh and represent DC, and Deleted Scenes makes for quite an emissary. One of the most likeable bands around the entirety of the Metro area, their mess of sounds is meticulous, sounding pretty and pretty impressive at once. The Scenes and their charming, perfectly imperfect indie rock are sure to win over the folks at Hopscotch.
