TWOPLUSTWO, presented by HeadsUpBoston.com, is a weekly live music series featuring two local and two out-of-town bands. The night aims to give bands from outside Boston an opportunity to play in the city as well as creating networking opportunities for local bands looking to get shows out of the area.
At TWOPLUSTWO you will hear nothing but local music being played over the PA and a video of a song from each bands performance will be available to stream following the night at HeadsUpBoston.com

Review from The Bollard
HUAK - Trajectory (Peapod Recordings)
The kinetic, nervous feel of Huak's music may bring the Minutemen to mind (though Huak doesn't claim humor or brevity as core values, as the San Pedro band did). A more apt comparison is the formidably brainy yet
tough Mission of Burma. Like that angular powerhouse, Huak conveys gravity and sobriety through muscular, aggressive playing, an instinct
for sinewy rather than voluptuous melodies, and spare use of harmony or
background vocals. |

Sometimes staccato grooves pierced by noisy guitar work, DC punk aesthetics, Jazz colours splashed onto post-rock, shit, and remnants of the ska we used to play nonstop. |
