Indie Top rock out Friday - be there.

This is a warm winter where Shanghai music is concerned, with several new albums by our local kids out or coming. I am most excited about Soma's forthcoming Indie Top V.1 (previous working titles were Indie Vox and Indie Box at the times I first wrote about them for my That's column), a compilation of mostly young, mostly Shanghainese artists. Tonight is the big launch concert, and it promises to be a great show. More intrepid music fans can also venture to Songjiang on Sunday for a big, free campus concert.
