On Sunday night at Upstairs At Nick's in Old City, the club had all the markings of a special event. The overflowing crowd was filled with local music devotees and celebrities including members of the Goats, the Low Road, and the Strapping Field Hands who had come to see the opening band, Tammy and the Amps, a pseudonym for a new solo side project from Kim Deal of the Breeders.
Debuting songs from her forthcoming solo recording, Deal took to the stage with the ebullience of a slacker cheerleader and led the band through a 40- minute set of new material.
