The Sonder Bombs are an Ohio-based indie rock band fronted by vocalist and guitarist Marietta Athanasiou — a group whose records have built a devoted following through a combination of melodic precision and emotional directness that the genre's best acts share. Their songs have the quality of feeling like they were written to be sung along to, which makes their live shows something between a concert and a communal experience.
Their touring has established them as a reliable presence on the independent circuit, with an audience that shows up knowing the words. The Masquerade on June 12 is the right size room for a band whose connection with its audience is built at close range.
