If you haven't kept up with People Being Human lately, you might want to. Since the band's debut at Artomatic 419! in April 2011 (under a different moniker), they've come quite a long way. As indicated by their three separate Saturday sets a few weeks ago at this year's Old West End Festival, the band is in increasingly high demand.
A funky blend of straight-ahead rock and indie grooves, People Being Human tosses in touches of jazzy riffs and big whooping choruses to make catchy, fun music that's familiar enough, but far different from what most bands are doing around town. Guitar, bass, and drums alternately lead and accent bright horns and twinkling key riffs that are a pure, rocking, good time delight.
This week, People Being Human takes up residence at Doc Watson's (1515 S. Byrne Rd.) on the evening of Friday, June 22. You'd be well advised to check it out. Visit People Being Human on Facebook. www.docwatsonstoledo.com - Toledo.com

Bio
We each cant help but make our different noises in opposition and harmony with other people. We talk in colors and sign language. We add and subtract with vowels and contractions. We are just trying to be human. We do not know what to call what we do. We are making it up as we go along. We feel like this is the best way to go. We encourage you to, too. To be human too.
Our songs have bounced from the walls of haunted old attic spaces, syncopating with spirits. They have stretched their legs in turn-of-the-century hotel rooms, rubbed their muzzles against those ancient musks. They have been rubbed in grit and oil of old, cold garages. They have became strange and delightful monstrosities that smell like all of those those old rooms to us. We dont know what to call them, but we love them anyway.
