Singer-songwriter David Bazan is best known for his work with the indie-rock project Pedro The Lion, where he offered nervy confessions about sins of the flesh and his conflicted relationship with God that made him a controversial but undeniable force in Christian songwriting circles. On his solo debut Curse Your Branches, Bazan’s faith is more battered than ever before, and the singer embraces his new role as a fallen evangelical. He shares a bill tonight with the Champaign, Ill. indie-pop ensemble Headlights (not to be confused with Bazan’s short-lived band Headphones).
