Lindsey Jordan's band Snail Mail is playing a show tonight at The Neptune and thank God, honestly. Jordan's croons, the power chords, the pining over someone you love but can't tell—her music is perfectly charged and moody for this foggy, cold weather we're experiencing. Weather always puts me in a state and I need music to go along with it.

Jordan is only 19 years old, and yet her latest record, Lush, exudes a raw and mature vulnerability. She captures the angsty, dreamy state of young adulthood that many of us feel, but don't make art about—it's easier to soak those feelings in alcohol or just stayed stoned about it all the time.

Here she is at the KEXP studio playing another song off of Lush, "Pristine":

Jordan's lyricism, which has been compared to singer-songwriters like Fiona Apple and Liz Phair, coupled with her pop sensibility, is what really makes her an interesting artist to listen to. The Maryland-based band sounds like the local indie-rock band that you really wanted to make it big. And now she’s sold out the Neptune Theatre. Don't fret though! I saw a lot of people on the Facebook event page reselling their tickets, so maybe you, too, can get a slice of the Snail Mail pie tonight.

"Heat Wave" is a banger. It makes me wish I knew how to play the guitar.

Also, here's some Vintage Jordan, playing "Thinning" which sounds like it could be a more fully-fleshed out song from Phair's Girly-Sound tapes.

Snail Mail will also be joined by Choir Boy, a band hailing all the way from the city of the Great Salt Lake. They are synth-y and spooky in a way that balances the more earnest guitar-driven other half of the bill.
