\n\tIt\u2019s very tough to offend the four members of the buzzy, post-punk throwback band Brigitte Calls Me Baby<\/a>, because they\u2019ve already heard it all. \u201cPeople say, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s like Elvis had sex with the Strokes, who invited the 1975 and Interpol to the orgy,’\u201d says frontman Wes Leavins, \u201cnot realizing what that ends up doing is piquing people\u2019s curiosity \u2014 because I don\u2019t know any band that sounds like those combinations.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tThat eclectic fusion of influences, which also includes a healthy dose of the Smiths<\/a>, has helped Brigitte Calls Me Baby rack up millions of Spotify plays, an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/em>, invitations to open for the Strokes, Muse, and Morrissey<\/a>, and a string of sold-out club shows all across the world even though they formed a mere four years ago. At the moment, they\u2019re taking a very short break following a long run of dates in Europe, where they travelled across the continent by van and lugged around their own gear.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cIt\u2019s exhausting,\u201d says bassist Devin Wessels. \u201cBut it\u2019s also the only thing that we really know how to do, and the only thing we want to do. And it\u2019s a dream to be that far from home and people know who you are.\u201d<\/p>\n
