Blind Pilot, courtesy of Thomas Oliver3 Leg Torso, Blind Pilot at Triple Door, 7:30 p.m., $12 Almost every song off Blind Pilot’s 3 Rounds and a Sound hasthe potential to become a radio hit. The music is completelylistenable: The circular guitars on “One Red Thread” or the brusheddrums on “I Buried A Bone” are part of the perfect formula forfolk-tinged indie pop. The multi-layered music is the work of just twoPortland natives — Ryan Dobrowski and Israel Nebeker — who manage toturn simple lyrics and instrumental into hum-along songs. And peopleare starting to notice: Aimee Mann has called Blind Pilot her “favoritenew band” and two singles have been featured on NPR and on iTunes asSingle of the Week. It won’t be long before this band’s fame expandsbeyond the reach of Portland and onto every indie kid’s iPod. Photocourtesy Blind Pilot. PAIGE RICHMOND
