The Vices
This is an ALL AGES event. Attendees under 21 years old MUST PURCHASE AA tickets. 21+ ticketholders must have ID for entry and to drink. Doors: 7:00pm Show: 7:30pm Since the release of debut album ‘Looking for Faces’ in March 2021, everything seems to be falling in place for The Vices. Their first club tour sold out, right after the announcement, Nothing but Thieves asked them to join the stage in Europe’s biggest venues, they opened for Kensington in the Ziggo Dome 3 times and major festivals like Best Kept Secret and Sziget could be ticked off the bucket list. And so the rest of the world seems to turn around for the energetic Groningen natives, after kicking off with their first small headline shows across Europe, until the very last person is convinced. Anyone who has seen The Vices live knows they have always played with confidence – and above all joy and energy – and after a year like this, confidence is something that can only grow. ‘Unknown Affairs’ reflects this new gained confidence audibly. Both in lyric and sound, the band dares to make choices, take risks. Floris: ‘For me ‘Unknown Affairs’ is about finding your own voice in a world flushed with taste and opinions, and the realization that voices can change and grow both musically and lyrically. I have found more peace to reflect on this. I allow myself to feel deeper and express this too.’ The band’s close friendship, who are constantly together in the band bus or studio, is like a safe bubble in which all observations and thoughts about this crazy world we live in are shared, doubted and spoken about. This bubble motivates and inspires, resulting in lyrics that read away like philosophy. The twentysomethings have often wondered why the world around us is the way it is, but now slowly but surely they dare to take a stand in it themselves. Especially the truths we consciously or unconsciously take away from our upbringing and pigeonholing are popular subjects to be discussed in the band bus. Singer and writer Floris van Luijtelaar: ‘We all have our things you know, that we believe in, that we value that we think are important. It’s like boxes or lines that we colour within. These things feel like inherent truths but in fact they’re not. The issue here is not that we don’t like to colour outside of the lines, but the fact that the lines are contrived and therefore don’t actually exist. If you close your eyes, you don’t see lines. And when you see no lines, you’re free to think, feel, create whatever you want. That’s the only thing we can do or say that is meaningful, that is true, about what you think and feel about yourself.The VicesWhy is it that we never dare to act purely from what we think and feel in the moment? Why is it that our world seems to be guided by unwritten rules and the judgment of others? And what would it sound and feel like if we didn’t feel that way? On March 17, The Vices will release their second album ‘Unknown Affairs’, a starting point in trying to answer these thoughts. For the Vices there are no universal truths. The only thing we can do is seek truth in our own feelings and thoughts. The album includes previously released singles ‘Strange Again’, ‘I Had A Name’ and ‘Tomorrow I’ll Be’. The album will be released on Mattan Records. https://www.thevicesofficial.com/

Lilly Hiatt
AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PMShow: 8:00 PM Lilly HiattThe last few years have been a little hazy for Lilly Hiatt, who finds herself searching for answers on her striking new album, Forever. Recorded at home with her husband, Coley Hinson who produced and played most of the instruments, Forever grapples with growth and change, escape and anxiety, self-loathing and self-love. The songs are intensely vulnerable, full of diaristic snapshots and deeply personal ruminations, but they’re also broad invitations to find yourself in their unflinching emotional excavations. The result is a raw, unvarnished work of love and trust that walks the line between alt-rock muscle and singer/songwriter sensitivity, a bold, guitar-driven exploration of maturity and adulthood from an artist who wants you to know you’re not alone, no matter how lost you may feel. Born in Los Angeles and raised in Tennessee, Hiatt first earned buzz with a pair of early solo records before breaking out with 2017’s Trinity Lane, which helped earn dates with the likes of John Prine, Margo Price, Drive-By Truckers, and Hiss Golden Messenger in addition to festival slots from Pilgrimage to Luck Reunion. NPR called the album “courageous and affecting,” while Rolling Stone hailed it as “the most cohesive and declarative statement of the young songwriter’s career.” Hiatt returned in 2020 with the similarly well-received Walking Proof, and in 2021 with Lately, which The Boston Herald said showcased her “knack for plainspoken, poetic lyrics” and Uncut proclaimed “captivating.”https://www.lillyhiatt.com/
Dan Spencer
AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Dan SpencerThe late singer-songwriter Judee Sill considered her style Country Cult Baroque, and Dan Spencer finds that this is a perfect way to describe his own music. His penchant for mixing morbid lyrical content and black metal imagery with country-fried Southern rock doesn’t feel forced at all, considering his eclectic taste and background as a mortician. No, really. Born near Nashville in Smyrna in 1993, the Tennessee troubadour grew up going to see hardcore bands in the region because there were no age restrictions on those kind of shows. He eventually moved to the college town of Cookeville, TN of which he notes, “It’s got this pretty unique history of having a way better music scene than it ought to.” Despite being in the heartland of country music, his interest in the genre coalesced in an entirely circuitous way, via the California-based, punk-pedigreed experimental band Amps For Christ. “They would cover a lot of traditional Scottish folk songs that morphed into Appalachian mountain music, which morphed into country music. I had to hear it through that lens to get into it.” After having played guitar in indie rock band Holy Coast and managing vocal/guitar duties for the CCR/Allman Brothers-inspired group Pumpkinseed, Spencer began writing and recording solo material in early 2020, just in time for the pandemic to hit. His debut album Bursting With Country-Fresh Flavor (a Seinfeld reference) was unceremoniously released online two years later. Music seemed like a dead end pursuit so he enrolled in mortuary school; a career path that shaped his music. “Death is a big lyrical topic I’m always exploring,” says Dan Spencer. “I think it really kicked off when I was working at a funeral home and really surrounded by it all the time that I learned new questions to ask about death. I think there’s just a culture, in the US specifically, where people are not prepared for grief at all. It’s also shocking working in that system seeing the random and seemingly meaningless nature of death. It does something to you and definitely inspires you to create art about it, with an infinite bowl to grab from. It makes you so much more aware that whoever is running this show is not guaranteeing you a long, fulfilled life of experiences and dreams coming true.” It was much sweeter for him when his dreams did start coming true, beginning with a chance encounter with a music industry veteran at a pizza place in Nashville that Spencer was managing on the weekends. Pretty soon his music ended up in the hands of Post Malone, a fellow musician with similarly diverse taste who was already at this point a platinum-selling household name with multiple #1 albums and singles under his belt. Spencer found himself engaged in songwriting sessions with Malone and Brad Paisley after dropping out of mortuary school; it all seemed surreal. https://open.spotify.com/artist/4nZhCPagwfGtHV2tASZkpU
