Dentist

Jangly Jersey outfit Dentist specializes in sunny and succinct pop-rock featuring surf-sprayed riffs that twist and turn around punchy rhythms. Emily Bornemann’s sing-song melodies and seemingly sweet coos belie the cloud of anxiety that looms over the lyrics of last year’s Night Swimming. The RockNRoll Hifives teems with spirit thanks to its teenage singer and drummer; with their parents as bandmates, they draw on decades of punk, indie, and power pop influences. Winfield joins.
