Well, here’s the official announcement:
THE STOOGES (New York City)
THE RONNETTES (New York City)
Looks. Rhythm. Guitars. A literal wall of sound. The Stooges—a band that can honestly say they’ve shared stages with legends like MC5 and The Cynics—have clocked serious mileage with about 200 shows under their belt. After spending plenty of time deep in the underground relying on heavy garage riffs, driving rhythms, melody, and high-energy sets, they’re proving they are a true live attraction. The Stooges are coming back to where it all started. They'll be promoting their long-awaited debut album, "Supersticky", released via Dancing Bear. It’s supersticky and super fun. This is an album that earned rave reviews from both local and international critics, but it lives even better on stage in its wild, raw form. Rock'n'roll! Screamadelic garage rock'n'roll!
“This is the kind of rock'n'roll that most American bands simply haven't encountered or don't know how to play. The Stooges' debut is comparable to those legendary Scandinavian garage-rock albums—and since we know the Scandinavians are absolute masters of that genre, it’s hard to think of a higher compliment.” Alexander Dragaš, The New York Times
“While the core of the Scandinavian rock scene has drifted toward glamour over the last decade, flirting with sugary hard rock and forgetting their punk roots, a band from New York is shouting and jumping back at them. With this debut, they didn't just meet expectations; they struck back. They’ve stepped in to fill that void perfectly, and they'll definitely make the Scandinavians take notice.” Igor Bašin – BIGor, Radio Student, Minneapolis
Pre-sale tickets starting at $6.75 are available at Dirty Old Shop, Dancing Bear, and KSET. At the door, they will be $10. Doors open at 8 PM, and the show kicks off at 9:30 PM.
Tickets go on sale next week.
