IGOR & THE RED ELVISES ~ Mighty Joe Castro and the Gravamen
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM IGOR & THE RED ELVISEShttps://redelvises.com/Mighty Joe Castro and the GravamenBased out of Philadelphia, PA, Americana rockabilly outfit, Mighty Joe Castro & The Gravamen is the latest musical project from accomplished collage artist and musician Joe Castro (ex-The Situation, The Lift Up). Influenced by 50’s Rock and Roll and infused with post modern Easter eggs cribbed from old episodes of MTV’s 120 Minutes, Mighty Joe Castro takes a modern, lyric driven approach to songwriting while The Gravamen layer on Jesus and Mary Chain-cover-Link Wray guitar atmosphere, booming doghouse bass and swinging beats. The quartet lurks at a crossroads where Sun Records and Creation Records meet.According to Joe Castro: “Our goal is to play original rock-n-roll, in the style of the pioneers, but update it lyrically and sonically. Take what we’ve learned, everything great that’s come after and go apply it to that original sound. What if Buddy Holly had access to a stack of effects pedals and some Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds records? That’s the ethos of the band.”The band released their debut EP, Wake Up, You’re Rockin’! in 2018, followed by their debut full length album, “Come On Angels” in 2020. It was recorded at Miner Street Recordings and produced by Brian McTear (Sharon Van Etten, Dr Dog, Dead Milkmen).In 2023, the released the singles “Embers in the Ash” and “Let Me Take the Blame”Influences include Sun Records, Stray Cats, The Cramps, Hillbilly Moon Explosion, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and Los Lobos combined with elements of punk and shoegaze with a lyrical influence of Morrissey, Tom Waits, Nick Cave and Bob Dylan.
D.R.I. ~ Deathwish ~ Roadkiller
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM D.R.I. We are a punk/metal crossover band with our roots set in hardcore. Established way back in 1982, we have about 10 CD’s & 2 DVD’s out on various labels and are considered to be one of the forefathers of speed metal and thrash punk music. We started out in Texas and moved to the Bay Area cause we heard the SF area had free food at the soup kitchens (from which the classic tune was written!!!!!)When we started our influences were bands like Black Flag and the Dead Kennedys. In 1982, our first release, which was really a demo, the 22-song 7″ EP, kickstarted our career as a formidable hardcore band. 22 songs in 17 minutes. Blistering fast, with on-the-dime cuts, and vocals to match. Said to contain the first grindcore blast ever recorded (No Sense). This record was later pressed into an LP, and was considered to be our first official release even though it was only 17 minutes. The 22-song debut eventually was combined with our second release, 1984’s Violent Pacification EP, and came out on CD in the mid-eighties, when that technology reached indie labels.In 1985 we started to listen to bands like Metallica & Slayer. Our second full length release Dealing with It, showed a progression to the metal side of the music genre. This album also was said to make an impact, and helped start the crossover movement. “We fused together our influences, and shoved into the DRI mold, Dealing With It is what came out”. DRI went on mixing its own brand of punk metal releasing: Crossover, Four of a Kind, Thrash Zone, Definition, a live album recorded in 1992, before releasing Full Speed Ahead in 1996 ; our last full length release. We have been re-issuing our old catalog with bonus tracks for the new millennium. We also got a bunch of Live DVD’s in the works, starting with the 1984 CBGB’s live DVD that came out in 2005. Summer of 2016 saw the release of the first new material in years. But Wait..THERE’s MORE came out as a 7″/12″ and CD.The band currently consists of original core members and song writing team, Spike Cassidy (guitar) and Kurt Brecht (vocals), along with Gregg Orr (bass) and Rob Rampy (drums).We are that band with the skanker in the circle. You know, the running man. The mosher. We appeared on a Beavis & Butthead episode. We also held the Guinness Book record for fastest band in the world, back in the day. We played with just about every major band you can name, and most festivals in our travels around the world for over three decades. We now have over 120 DRI songs under our belt, and still play about 35 or so when we play live.Deathwishhttps://deathwish.bandcamp.com/track/wallsRoadkillerRoadkiller is female fronted guitar driven high energy riffage, clearly inspired by the eighties but capable of tapping into so much more. These songs will make you want to tear shit up as you scream along to powerful choruses and nightmarish verses. Check out their latest album “Pick of the Litter” a record fate to make your ears bleed in all the right ways. Roadkiller.bandcamp.com

Cherubs ~ A Deer A Horse ~ RILVA
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Cherubshttps://cherubs.bandcamp.com/A Deer A HorseBathed in dim lights and fire baptized on well-trodden stages, A Deer A Horse wear the grime, grit, and gusto of hundreds of shows and countless hours in the studio like a badge of honor. Coming up out of Brooklyn, the band conjoins rock, metal, and punk in an unholy union praised by A.V. Club, Consequence of Sound, Village Voice, and Revolver who described them as “somewhere between the Melvins, Helms Alee, Red Fang, and Sleater-Kinney.” After stoking buzz underground, the group only sharpened their edges with unnerving melodies and cathartic dirges on their 2022 full-length debut album, Grind. Hot on the heels of their recent European tour, and a tour out to Caterwaul Fest, you can find them playing several regional shows in the Northeastern US.http://www.instagram.com/adeerahorsebandhttp://www.adeerahorse.bandcamp.com/https://open.spotify.com/artist/3z1jofa0BmNiO1oN00XirVhttps://www.facebook.com/ADeerAHorse/RILVASludge-punk / Noise-rock from Philly/Wilmington.Count von Count & Wally dunes, just keepin’ it rollin’.https://rilva.bandcamp.com/album/rilva
