Bent Knee ~ Sarina (Cambridge Hall)
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Bent KneeBent Knee are not a band for convention. In fact, since forming in 2009, the Boston-based six-piece have been on a constant journey of musical exploration that thoroughly disregards it. The result is five records that completely defy categorization and transcend genre. In other words, the band don’t just break the rules, they make up their own. That’s ensured they exist exclusively on their own terms. Frosting, the band’s sixth full-length, pushes those boundaries even further. It’s the most Bent Knee-esque Bent Knee record to date, which means that, simultaneously, it’s also the album of theirs that sounds the least like Bent Knee.Sarinawww.sarinasounds.bandcamp.com
Juan Wauters ~ Justin Kerecz & The Kennel Club
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Juan WautersThere’s freedom to be found in consistency. Until recently, Juan Wauters may not have agreed with this statement. As a touring musician and multinational citizen, transience had always come naturally to him. Circumstance, however, recently prompted him to reconsider the benefits of staying in one place: “During COVID I discovered / that I like stability,” he muses on the title track of his new album, “but the world still sees me / as a wandering rebel.” His most introspective work to date, Wauters’ sixth solo album Wandering Rebel finds the artist taking stock of how he’s changed, how the world sees him, and what he wants out of life. From his early days as a founding member of Queens-based garage act The Beets to his impressive solo career, Wauters has spent the better part of the last decade on the road. When he wasn’t touring or recording, he was gathering material, traversing Latin America to write his 2019 Spanish-language opus La Onda de Juan Pablo, then heading North to collaborate with friends like Mac DeMarco, Homeshake, Nick Hakim and more for 2021’s boisterous Real Life Situations. Apart from intermissions in his home base of Jackson Heights, Queens, Wauters has been notoriously hard to pin down.

W.I.T.C.H. (We Intend to Cause Havoc) ~ Death Valley Girls ~ Abraxas
Dave Kiss Presents W.I.T.C.H. (We Intend to Cause Havoc) with Death Valley Girls and Abraxas at Ardmore Music Hall Sunday, June 11, 2023 Seated Doors: 5:45 PM | GA Doors: 6:15 PM | Show: 7:00 PM 21+ Unless with a Parent or Legal Guardian ———————————- About W.I.T.C.H. (We Intend to Cause Havoc) Website | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube | Spotify W.I.T.C.H. (We Intend To Cause Havoc) were the biggest rock band in Zambia in the 1970s and spearheaded a new genre dubbed Zamrock, fusing influences that ranged from the Rolling Stones to Black Sabbath and James Brown and mixing them with traditional African rhythms and bush village songs. At t the peak of their popularity, the band often needed police to keep fans at bay while their lead singer Jagari – whose name is an Africanisation of Mick Jagger’s – riled up crowds by stage diving from balconies and dancing manically as the WITCH’s blend of psychedelic rock and African rhythms permeated the surrounding atmosphere.Jagari is the charismatic sole surviving original member of the band. As Zambia’s economy stagnated and the country buckled under the AIDS crisis, WITCH fell apart. Jagari retreated to a life of quasi-anonymity as a university music professor before being wrongfully arrested during Zambia’s toughest hour. Now a man in his 60s, he spends his time mining gemstones hoping to strike it rich, until very recently the band being just a nostalgic memory of his youth. ———————————- About Death Valley Girls Website | Facebook | Instagram LA mystic-rock mainstay Death Valley Girls return with the announcement of their upcoming LP, Islands In The Sky, out February 24th via Suicide Squeeze Records. With the announce comes cosmic lead-single “What Are The Odds” accompanied by a video of the band reincarnated in red beehive wigs at an epic pool party, quickly expanding into an exploration of existing in parallel universes and multidimensional space/time. ———————————- About Abraxas Website | Instagram | Twitter Abraxas is a cross-Atlantic collaboration between Uruguayan musician and former Los Bitchos member Carolina Faruolo and Night Beats frontman Danny Lee Blackwell. Their debut album ‘Monte Carlo’ is a perfectly crafted escape hatch from reality (inspired by the lockdown), influenced by classic R&B, doo wop and Latin rhythms..
