Hailing from Chicago, The Changes have been earning praise from bloggers and mainstream media alike for their smart, hyper, Voxtrotish new-pop tunes. Head over to their web site to stream some of their songs. I’m really digging “Water of the Gods.” Sister-site Chicagoist is also a fan.

The band is playing DC9 tomorrow night and DCist has one pair of tickets to give away. To enter, all you have to do is leave us a comment with your favorite change from the last few days. It can be anything. A Democratic House and Senate, 70 degree weather, Etan Thomas playing well, whatever strikes your fancy. We’ll pick a winner this afternoon.
