CROBOT announces new tour dates with Kyng and Kill Devil Hill

March 25, 2014

– TOUR ANNOUNCEMENT – We just got the news that one of our FAVORITE BAD ASS BANDS… CROBOT is heading out on tour at the end of April with two more of our favorite bands; Kyng and Kill Devil Hill. We just saw Kyng on Sunday night when they performed with Lacuna Coil in Sacramento. I believe that was the 5th time I have seen Kyng and they are just awesome. Just last week, we brought you our interview with Crobot as we met up with them prior to their set at the DNA Lounge in San Francisco. Unbelievable set! Crobot is a four piece band from Pennsylvania that have a Dirty Groove Rock sound. They are like no other band out there today.

March 25, 2014

Pop Punk sensation, The Wonder Years are in the midst of their shows for their headlining tour, “The Greatest Generation Tour”. They have been having great success with the tour and shows are selling out. They just released a music video for Dismantling Summer which is off of their latest album, The Greatest Generation. The video was directed by Drew Russ and shot in the band’s hometown of Philadelphia, PA. “We knew that for a song so personal, a literal re-telling for the video would be unwelcome and painful.” Says lead vocalist Dan “Soupy” Campbell. “Drew, the director took the core nerve of the song, the idea of being away when it matters most, and spun it into an absurdist piece of dark comedy during which my family found themselves fed up with my perpetual absence and replaced me with a mannequin, leaving me in the literal cold.” Check out the video here: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQR7D4sW1Lc&feature=youtu.be] You can catch The Wonder Years out on their headlining tour with support from Fireworks, Real Friends, Citizen and Modern [Read More]
