The Atlanta, GA quintet, Holiday Parade,

Whitworth (guitar, piano), Flowe (bass,

household name. They produce light, catchy
melodies with tight instrumentals and
straight-forward vocals. Holiday Parade
blew all preconceived conceptions with their
new EP This Is My Year, now
available, making all other albums go on
hold for a few weeks because it’s so damn
catchy. Beware, your kid sister will be
singing all their tunes soon…

"Yeah, I'm ready to launch this thing, and
I'm looking forward to it, and in a way it

road, 'cause it was, it was 2004, so I'm
excited to get back out there and start

Door 7PM/ Show 8PM |
13+ | $15ADV/ $17DOS
Tickets available at all
Ticketmaster
locations including House of Guitars, and Tickets Express (875 Main
St. Rochester, NY) |
For many, the
introduction to musician Mark Kozelek's
artistry came in 1992 when after nearly a
minute of whispering guitar, a pristine
voice rose out, haunting and inhabiting the
air it traveled. Greeting listeners with
interlocking images of lost childhood and
the depravity of aging, these initial
seconds of "24" marked the entrance unto the
romantic, reflective realm of Red House
Painters - Kozelek's first musical
effort to find label support. With each
deliberate note and every articulated word,
a feeling hung, suspended in the memory of a
talented songwriter who could, through an
unshakable, natural devotion to lyrics and
guitarsmanship, pull an audience into the
very moment of his inspiration. more... |

Vice Grip w/ guests|
Tickets available at all
Ticketmaster
locations including House of Guitars, and Tickets Express (875 Main
St. Rochester, NY) |
Vice Grip originally began as a
project between vocalist Izzy Sparks and
keyboardist Felix Leiter. The two were grade
school classmates, and began writing
together at the age of 8. One of their first
works, " The Eagle's Flight" was a
symphonic piece and would later be stolen by
renowned idea thief James Curnow. The two
became discouraged and decided to "dumb
things down" to prevent further thefts.
Sparks and Leiter recruited bassist Jeff
Mogley (formerly of Kajagoogoo), drummer
Verizon Star, and newcomer A.S.H.L.E.Y. to
fill out the live sound. Eventually
guitarist Toni Gobble (the artist formerly
known as Ripcord Baxter) and Keyboardist
Cucci Mathers were also added. The
"Spectacular Seven" (as they like to be
called) began touring in 2006 following the
release of their first full-length " The
Very Best of Vice Grip".

Tickets available at all

A Kidnap In Color is a breath of
fresh air in an otherwise stagnant scene.
The band's seven song EP, The Rumours Are
Flying, is brimming with charismatic
lyrics coupled with a sexy motif, backed by
compelling guitar riffs, driving bass lines,
and a dynamic array of infectious
dance-laden beats. Top it off with a variety
of catchy hooks, and Rumours is
guaranteed to have you singing for hours
after listening. And A Kidnap In Color
can deliver what it promises: the live show
is both energetic and robust and will have
even the most reserved listener moving with
the music. Indeed, A Kidnap In Color
is the complete package- energy, looks,
dedication, and, most importantly, a unique
sound among a million bland ones- and
promises to have people talking. For a band
this good, the only way from here is up.

"It costs nothing to be honest, loyal and
true." If you put your ear to the street,
you can hear the rumble of the world in
motion; people going to and from work, to
school, to the grocery store. You may even
hear the whisper of their living rooms,
their conversation, their complaints, and if
you're lucky, their laughter. If you're
almost anywhere in America , you'll hear
something different, something special,
something you recognize but haven't heard in
a long time. It is the sound of a real
celebration.

The Gainesville, FL-based quintet, Less
Than Jake, known for their infectious
ska-inspired pop-punk anthems have been
making music, recording and touring together
for 14 years. Formed in 1992 as a power-pop
trio that included originators Vince
Fiorelli (drums/ lyricist/ Feuled By Ramen
co-founder) Chris Demakes (vocals/ guitar)
and Roger Manganelli (bass), Less Than
Jake debuted in ’94 with the album
Pez-core, including saxophone and
trumpet players into their sound. Less
Than Jake has watched bands come and go
all the while surviving due to their
willingness to evolve in such a way that has
kept their earliest fans as well as a new
generation of listeners excited about what
they do. Of course, the best way to get
buzzed off Less Than Jake is still
the band’s high-energy, raucous live show.
The band is touring in support of their
latest release, In with the Out Crowd,
with Buddy Schaub (trombone) and Peter "JR"
Wasilewski (saxophone).
