As It Is: The Great Depression Tour 2019 w/ Sharptooth, Hold Close, and Point North at The Masquerade
Friday, February 1st at 6:00pm
As It Is – completed by frontman Patty Walters, guitarist and singer Benjamin Langford-Biss, drummer Patrick Foley and bassist Ali Testo – take the listener on a journey which delves into every aspect of arguably the most prevalent social ill of our time across their third studio album, The Great Depression. From public perception, to internal war, the quartet unflinchingly confront the most difficult questions around depression, the value of life over death, and whether the rhetoric around ‘reaching out to talk’ is ostensibly hollow, if no one is prepared to hear those words. But if the four piece have delved into brave new territory conceptually on The Great Depression then the sonic leap forward that runs in tandem with it signals this record as not just a landmark release for the band, but for the scene as a whole.
GRINGO STAR // JUPITER WATTS //A DRUG CALLED TRADITION AT THE EARL
Saturday, February 2nd at 9:00pm
1st Gringo Star show of 2019!! We’re gonna be doing a little European Tour Send Off Party at The EARL SAT Feb 2nd. We’re still trying to raise a few more dollars for gas and tolls and weed while we are in Europe. Also, Groundhog Day, so who knows. We’ll probably play our song Shadow to decide if Trump will be impeached in the winter or spring. We will be joined by local heavy weights A Drug Called Tradition and Jupiter Watts.
This will be a non-smoking show 🙂
