Tonight, Saxon Shore will be at The Pilot Light in Knoxville, TN and on Thursday, destroying NYC with rock music once again Thursday night at the ACME Underground. They’ve been working their instrumnetal magic cross country for 8 weeks now. Finishing the tour will be a sunrise performance at the purple door festival and an evening experimental set with Reels of White Softly Flow. Early Day Miners and Unwed Sailor travel on to the Black Cat in DC tonight. I was able to catch the sets on both Monday and Tuesday in NYC and Brooklyn and both bands are at the top of their game, be sure to come out and support. The Trouble with Sweeney have shows Fri/Sat in Virginia. If you’re nearby, you’re obligated to go.
