In the course of four days “Children Part I” and “Children Part II” have shot towards the top of my “favorite locals songs to hear live” list.

Frontman Randolph Williams III kept insisting that “One Trick Pony” could not come and that onlookers were watching “Raw Sugar,” perhaps naming the band different since they were plugged-in, drummer Jenny eschewed boxes for an actual drum kit, and they had a (gasp!) guest bassist. The added power really served to amplify the band’s talent as well as their sound.
