Sunday might be a tough night to get a large crowd out at a concert. But when it's Memorial Day weekend, and when it's Noah and the Whale, it's a different story, as it was at The Doug Fir Lounge. The ambient basement was full of early arriving fans determined to claim the best ‘seats' in the house, anxiously awaiting the British crooners.

With two back-up singers harmonizing 1950′s-style, and a slightly Chris-Isaak-esque voice, Bahamas effortlessly combined the comforting familiarity of oldies and folk with a fresh twist that piqued interest. Captivating with the fun-loving, and fun-poking, “Hockey Teeth,” and ending with a cover of Prince's “Purple Rain,” Jurvanen and his cohorts impressed the entire room and warmed the crowd for the main attraction, though there was little need to warm them up.

Fink explained that “the removal of my jacket signifies the end of the romantic section. It used to last five songs,” he said, “but over the years it has dwindled down to just two.” Partially, likely, because the newest album, Last Night on Earth, has more fast-paced, danceable songs than “romantic” ones. Fink called the next section of the show the “good times” portion, which included their catchy, first hit single, “Five Years Time” as well as other favorites from the various albums.
