Chapel Hill, NC indie rock band Roman Candle are playing a show tomorrow night at Mercury Lounge with Wild Beasts.

Roman Candle are currently touring behind their newest disc Oh Tall Tree in the Ear (released this past May) which is the follow-up to their critically acclaimed 2006 Chris Stamey-produced release, The Wee Hours Revue. Oh Tall Tree in the Ear has been getting strong reviews and you have to love Paste Magazine's quote: "Oh Tall Tree in the Ear is part the kind of ragged, sprawling travelogue you'd imagine Paul Westerberg would pen if he was a roadie for Oasis at the height of Britpop, and part barrage of hallucinatory Dylanesque visions vomited up after a boozy, blurry night spent careening down dark, moonlit North Carolina backroads."

Tomorrow night's show is an early show - Roman Candle is listed on the Merc's website as going on at 7:30PM (which probably means 8PM). Cover is $12.
