((((THIS SHOW HAS BEEN MOVED TO ABBEY PUB, ALL TICKETS WILL BE HONORED)))) JON LANGFORD & THE PINE VALLEY COSMONAUTS (performing the Executioner's Last Songs) THE SADIES ROSIE FLORES SALLY TIMMS PUERTO MUERTO JON LANGFORD & THE PINE VALLEY COSMONAUTS Jon Langford's been a force behind the Waco Brothers, the Mekons, and the Sadies. Recently he's joined up with the Pine Valley Cosmonauts who have become major contributors to the fight against the death penalty. Last year's Executioner's Last Songs, Vol. 1 raised more than $40,000 for the Illinois Coalition against the Death Penalty. Coincidentally, Illinois Gov. George Ryan stepped out of his Republican box to declare a moratorium on the death penalty in the same year. THE SADIES - mp3 The Toronto foursome combine '60s country rock and psychedelia, C&W, surf, punk and cosmic American music and transform it into their own unique sound. The Sadies may sound like a lot of things, but no one quite sounds like the Sadies or seems to do it quite so effortlessly. ROSIE FLORES - mp3 Blending rockabilly, honky tonk, jazz, and Western swing along with traditional influences from her Tex-Mex heritage, Rosie Flores currently resides in Austin, Texas, where August 31 was declared Rosie Flores Day by the Austin City Council in 2006. SALLY TIMMS Best known for her involvement with the Mekons, Sally Timms recorded her first solo album, Hangahar, at the age of nineteen with Pete Shelley of the Buzzcocks. She has released several other solo CDs... some of which were written by Ryan Adams, Mark Eitzel, Kevin Coyne, Johnny Dowd, Mekons, Jon Langford and Sean Garrison. PUERTO MUERTO A husband-and-wife duo that make strange and beautiful rock music. Tim plays guitar and other stringed instruments; Christa often abuses a small drum kit. Both write songs and sing, Christa with a startling, classically trained mezzosoprano-to-alto, Tim with a reedy, evocative baritone. Their influences include Ray Davies, Gustav Mahler, the Clash, Kurt Weill, Dr. Dre, and Günther Grass
BUY TICKETS HERE! BUTTERFLY ASSASSINS (formerly What Four) THE OBSTACLES CAVASHAWN (formerly Hey Hostage) LUSTER BUTTERFLY ASSASSINS - mp3 Butterfly Assasins' sound is like that of a Steinway piano. There is a very dark side and a very bright side, dynamic contrast, and some may even say beauty. They have subtle jazz and classical influences, melodic and bitter catchy vocals, strong guitar riffs, intricate piano parts, and a range of complexity throughout their songs. THE OBSTACLES Influenced by video games and alcohol. CAVASHAWN - mp3 Growing up as childhood friends, the members of Cavashawn have experienced everything together. That includes but is not limited to: rain, MySpace, Jenga, and Steely Dan. LUSTER - mp3 Luster's electro-melodic and sometimes a bit lonely or morbid guitar driven sound has grabbed the ears of thousands of fans across America via the web.
BUY TICKETS HERE! ANTI-CREW AMFM COLOR RADIO H20 SOUL ANTI-CREW - mp3 Anti-Crew has a true dynamic sound. Anti-Crew brings a high-energy, charismatic performance to the stage that never fails to ignite crowds. The combination of drive and natural talent that has brought the group an early taste of success is generating excitement that has only just begun. AMFM - mp3 Revered by casual and critical listeners alike, Chicago based quartet AMFM combines radio-friendly sensibilities with solid dynamics and layered instrumentation in delivering songs that are accessible yet musically viable. COLOR RADIO - mp3 Sisters are doing it for themselves! Okay.. well in this case its brothers - Brothers and two other talented folks are doing it for themselves! The 'it' being indie rock music. H20 SOUL H2O Soul delivers a universal message in their music that appeals to the hearts, minds and souls of their listeners, relating to them through the human experience. These three veteran MC’s possess a unique chemistry, never before seen, that explodes on stage and on record.
THE SASS DRAGONS PRIZZY PRIZZY PLEASE THE COKE DARES OIL CAN BOYS THE CLOSET FAIRIES THE SASS DRAGONS "We are a three dude rock group. Some of the things we like are people getting kicked in the nards, drinking beer, doing drugs, running around with slinkies on our weiners, and we laugh especially hard when people bonk their heads on things. Oh, and also when people slip on banana peels we might pee our pants laughing so much. Remember the part in ROBOCOP when Kurtwood Smith sez "Can you fly Bobby?" PRIZZY PRIZZY PLEASE "Prizzy Prizzy Please sound like what Fugazi would have sounded like if Ian McKaye were backed by members of Prince’s Revolution and Parliament on drugs — a relentlessly punky attack that defies any real characterization. Is Prizzy Prizzy Please a punk band or a funk band? At times it is neither, and at times both. “Indefinite Suspension” lampoons Ron Artest, complete with a hysterical a capella breakdown and frenzied attack. Essentially, Prizzy Prizzy Please is as it chooses. Much like 1970s avant-punk/fusion/funk legends Pere Ubu, Prizzy Prizzy Please is self-aware and self-consciously weird, sometimes obtuse and oft-putting, but always entertaining." -Matt Erier, BSU Daily News THE COKE DARES - mp3 We evolve as the shared molecules that we are mutate, soar, & die. In other words: we got together as a one-time thing to play Jose Mignorance's wedding reception. We were supposed to do a bunch of classic rock songs: Zep, Floyd, Dylan, Top; but none of us learned more than the first verse & chorus OIL CAN BOYS Oil Can Boys play drunk punk that is just plain fun. Check your pretensions at the door, grab a can of cheap beer, and try to have a good time for once. THE CLOSET FAIRIES Think Mission of Burma meets the Full House theme song. |
