(past pick) If your Spotify playlist is heavy on ‘80s new wave and alternative rock songs, you need to check out The Mersey Brothers. Hopelessly devoted to an era of better music, this Madison-based quartet fronted by vocalist/guitarist Sean Michael Dargan — back in town after a three-month absence — will spotlight bands from R.E.M. to The Cure and Crowded House to The Knack. The Mersey Brothers’ fun-filled two- and three-part harmonies will leave you feeling grateful for good music.
