April 18, 2015

In a time where people are skeptical about the music industry, some declaring the typical Rock is Dead mantra, or demanding more rock, the fact is, now is the most exciting time in music! Rock n Roll is alive and thriving and it is up to you to get yourself to a live show and be a part of it all. When you go to a great live show, you literally lose all your worries and concerns the second the music starts and you lose yourself in the Rock n Roll. That is exactly what happens when you are at a We Are Harlot concert! We caught We Are Harlot as they made a stop in Fresno at Strummers for the first leg of their tour. People were arriving early and couldn’t wait to finally see We Are Harlot live. One thing is for sure, their high energy set did not disappoint and left everyone anticipating the next time they would see them.
