SPECIAL APPEARANCE - ONE NITE ONLY! THE HELLFLOWERS from Los Angeles are known for their blend of Blondie / Pretenders-style pop-rock delivered with the punk energy of the Ramones & The Clash. The band features Christina Lopez on vocals & guitar and Matt Eskew on bass. Known for their high-energy live performances, primarily throughout the Southwest, they have released several EPs and albums, including "Come On, Let's Dance!" and "Vacation". Just back from Europe, The Hellflowers will be playing songs from their latest LP “Vamonos”, from surf, to rock'n'roll anthems, to alt country, The Hellflowers are not beholden to any one genre and even rock the Devo classic “Girl You Want". Be sure to catch this FREE SHOW Thursday night at Gritty's in the Old Port.
TIGER BOMB joins this heavyweight bill with a set of catchy originals, including favorites from their LPs on Dionysus Records. Their soaring harmonies and high-energy "tuff-bubblegum" sound, create some of the best and most danceable garage-pop music on the scene today. Tiger Bomb is a full-on feline frenzy — a thrill-packed dancing & listening experience! "Tiger Bomb plays the sweet/tough sound of pop... some really cool songs... rocking and full of fun" -Paul Collins. "Nothin' like a garage band made up of ass-kickin' chicks utilizing harmonies and hooks" -Palmyra Delran (DJ - Underground Garage)
KRIS RODGERS & THE DIRTY GEMS have been a fixture on the Northeast music scene for some time now, quietly building a following and buzz around the band's high energy live shows. Little Steven from the E-Street Band signed the group to his record label, Wicked Cool, and released the single "Every Little Crack" which helped the band to garner some national and international exposure. With the group's latest album "Still Dirty" and follow-up single "Soul Shake" (w/ Michael DeBarres of Silverhead / Powerstation), the group has hit its stride! If you love early Rock, Blues, and the music of the 60s & 70s, be sure to catch Kris Rodgers & The Dirty Gems live & in person at Gritty's!!
