Guggenheim Grotto -- FREE INSTORE
Guggenheim Grotto Free In-store Performance
Monday, March 2nd - 7:00pm
Way back in 2006 we got a call from Trini, who writes for the music blog You Crazy Dreamers and lives down the street, and she was asking about having one of her favorite bands in for an in-store; long story short, this was our introduction to the fine Irish band, The Guggenheim Grotto. The in-store was incredibly special and, because of it, we've kept an eye on these guys. Over the past couple of years their star seems to have been on the rise, they've had songs feature prominently on KCRW and WXPN, they've also had songs featured on the TV shows Brothers and Sisters and One Tree Hill, and Stereo Subversion said "...if you are a fan of great harmonies, melodic arrangements, and intelligent folk rock sound then this album belongs in your collection (9/10)."
We are over the moon that the guys have made a little room for us in their US tour schedule and hope that we can deliver them a full house, so give a click to those links down there and see if you can make it work to join us.
The guest list is open now and there is no pre-order required, just the RSVP.
