This week’s featured event:
Jennifer Clavin of Bleached sums it up best, “…Can You Deal? is for everyone who can stop referring to my band as ‘female fronted.’ It is for everyone who can stop feigning surprise every time a woman plugs in and plays well, or gets behind the drums, or has the sickest bass style. It is 2017. Can You Deal Yet? I look forward to speaking to you about the music.” Don’t miss Bleached in the 7th St Entry this Thursday, August 31 with The Dirty Nil.
Please see the attached show listings release for all newly announced shows and updates.
