***MOVED TO SILK CITY*** Sublime Afterparty with Spray Allen (featuring Eric Wilson of Sublime) ~ The Happys
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 10:00 PM Show: 10:00 PM Sublime Afterparty with Spray Allen (featuring Eric Wilson of Sublime)Brought together by skateboard icon Danny Way, Spray Allen is an alternative rock band with a “new psychedelic” blend of ‘70s and ‘90s influences. Founded by Eric Wilson (Sublime, Long Beach Dub Allstars), the group includes two singer-guitarists formerly with Late Night Episode, Daniel Lonner and Eric Sherman. After meeting in the desert to jam on some initial tracks, when Covid, hit we all just locked in and started writing more and more. Eventually, we had like 60 songs and made demos of them, then Wilson sent them to Paul Leary. Next thing you know, we’re off to record a record at Sonic Ranch Studios outside El Paso in Texas with Paul Leary coming out of retirement to produce it. The experience at sonic ranch was magical.” The album sessions included guests such as keyboardist and horn player Gabrial McNair (No Doubt) and Stu Brooks (Dub Trio), resulting in a 26-song double album.ig: @spray_allenThe HappysThe Happys are a Bay Area band composed of four twenty-something-year-olds playing dysfunctional Surf Pop-Punk/Grunge. They recently got off tour with The Mad Caddies. Formed in the Bay Area, songwriter Nick Petty grew up writing music his whole life. Starting his career after overcoming addiction, depression and incarceration, powerful even strange songs started to form. He is influenced heavily by Hip Hop and Grunge. The Happys new lineup began in January of 2018 when Petty and longtime bassist Brett Brazil returned from a Pacific NW acoustic tour and reconnected with longtime friend and now guitarist, Alex Sanchez. Sanchez had previously played in Hot Start and had just touched down from an extended backpacking trip in Australia. Drummer Ryan Donahue approached the band by weird coincidence at a local bar and joined the band shortly after a few rehearsals. The band began booking shows and accruing a fast number of fans and several thousands of views on their Spotify and Youtube channels. The Happys have shared the stage with The Mad Caddies, Blac Rabbit, Agent Orange, and Del the Funky Homosapien among others. They are managed by Rick Bonde of Tahoe Artists Agency who has broken acts such as Blink 182, Sublime, Reel Big Fish, Monophonics and The Brothers Comatose.ig: @thehappys

Taggart ~ Thee Glitterbombs ~ Sapwood
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM TaggartUpon the release of their last album Philadelphia Magazine wrote “The “alt” tag usually makes us suspicious, but this veteran Philly band has earned it. Taggart‘s spent two decades making the sort of jangly, catchy, thrift-store t-shirt rock that would’ve fit nicely on a college radio playlist circa 1990”. A Philadelphia institution for over 20 years Taggart has never taken a break from writing, performing and recording. In 2022 they celebrated the 25th anniversary of their first album with its first vinyl release and now are back to working on a batch of new songs for their next album. https://taggart.bandcamp.com/Thee GlitterbombsIrrelevant girl punk band hailing from the boozy city of love, Philadelphia. Basic chords, snotty attitudes and songs about the trials and tribulations of time passing, reminiscing about our younger selves, and acknowledging the simple woes of daily life. We are future babies born from local organization, Girls Rock Philly, and inspired by all that is the Riot grrrl movement. We’ll tell you to F*ck Your Job Search, give you an inside peek into the mind of a cat, and tell you about the mysteries of Olivia Dunham.https://soundcloud.com/theeglitterbombs/sets/diner-ep-splithttps://instagram.com/theeglitterbombs?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=SapwoodSapwood is a recording project based in Millville, New Jersey. The band was started by Jason Brown and Sean Sanderlin in 2014 in various basements, garages and sheds using tape recorders to capture their sounds. Sapwood almost went a decade without ever playing a live show and it wasn’t until Aubrey Hickman joined the band on bass in 2021 that they finally crawled out of the basement and into the public eye.https://sapwood.bandcamp.com/
