Above: KOLARS, the hard-touring husband-and-wife team of Rob Kolar and Lauren Brown, make more noise, mash more genres and have more fun than any duo has a right to. Last week, they teased the new single “Turn It Up” (stream it below), their first new music since their 2017 full-length. They kick off a two-month tour this week, and on Friday night KOLARS visit the Echo. Opening the show is Alex Lilly, who in January released her album “2% Milk,” along with Joy Downer. Get tickets here.
