This Event Has Ended
This one is just your average post-honky-techno-indie-rock-boot-scoot. You know, no big deal. Featuring Dylan Earl & The Reasons Why, coming to us all the way from Fayetteville, AR and with a full band in tow. Dylan's take on honky-tonk is a classic country sound with a modern sensibility that's sure to get you out of your seat! They are joined by the rock outfit Blanchard, bringing their blend of catchy riffs and mournful melodies, and the electronic, live-hardware-wizard Wake (AKA Matthew Hettich). It's a multi-genre-Monday, so come sporting your flashiest rave outfit, your favorite rock band t-shirt, or your cowboy boots. Or, ideally, all three.
Monday, 12/9 // 8pm // FREE // All Ages

Blanchard
The solo project turned full band endeavor of multi-instrumentalist Dylan Blanchard brings together contrasting styles, timbres, and influences to make something at times both catchy and dissonant, energetic and dark, joyful and sad. Joined on guitar by Ben Clary (Holy Garden District, The Bipedal Approach) and on drums by Ben Gerhards (The Hammeritz, Cloacas) the trio brings energy to songs that delve into the spaces between garage-rock riffs and mournful, minimalist structures. 2 EPs, "A Ghost in Arroyo Hondo" and "Imminence" are out now on Matron Records!

Wake is Matthew Michael Ahern Hettich, a SANTA FE, NM based electronic musician.
