Tickets $12. Adv. $15. At the door
Doors 7:30 pm showtime 8:30pm
New York multi-cultural genre-bending duo, Frenchy and the Punk (New York) is made up of hardcore punk veteran guitarist Scott Helland (bassist of Deep Wound - with J Mascis and Lou Barlow, Outpatients) and French-born singer/percussionist Samantha Stephenson. They pound out Cabaret Folk Punk. Helland's signature rhythmic and melodic guitar looping style create a driving and expansive sonic landscape that perfectly blends with Stephenson's powerful 'Siouxsie-esque' vocals and percussion. "Top 25 Dynamic Duos" Yahoo Music Blog / "Beautifully evolved from the Punk scene" NPR / “stripped-down DIY energy, tribal rhythms, and earthy drama” Chronogram / www.frenchyandthepunk.com
The Men That Will Not Be Blamed For Nothing hail from London, UK. They sing loud punk rock songs about the Victorian era, and have been gleefully rubbing the face of present day Britain in the rotten corpse of its past since 2008, in the hope that it will learn from its mistakes (it hasn’t). “Corusatingly loud and extremely funny” - The Guardian / “If you are drawn into their world, you will appreciate how special TMTWNBBFN are.” - Uber Rock / “Probably the maddest, most original punk band around”- Louder Than War /
“Pulsating with fiery punk fury”- Vive Le Rock / www.blamedfornothing.com
