Somebody’s Darling at the Levitt Pavilion

Their name may sound like a soft lullaby, but Somebody’s Darling is anything but sleepy. The five Texas-born musicians jam bluesy rock ‘n’ roll tunes that are big and commanding in every possible way, from lead singer Amber Farris’ impressive vocal chops and wild blonde hair to the band’s gritty rhythm section and grooving guitar licks. Think My Morning Jacket fronted by a woman or Alabama Shakes if they’d been born in Texas. Now together for seven years and three albums, their most recent release, Adult Roommates, takes a mature and sometimes stark look at what it means to be a working band. The Dallas band recently relocated to Nashville to tour and write their next record.
