Blake Mills is a player I only heard about recently and I’m not sure why because this dude is a god damn six string samurai. He’s one of the most original guitarists I’ve seen in a long, long time. I don’t want to guitar geek out on you too much here but this dudes got chops. Mr….
Wednesday the 26th: The Delta Saints / Stolen Rhodes / Thee, Idea Men @ Milkboy The Delta Saints are a great blues rock band from Nashville. Stolen Rhodes and Thee, Idea Men are both excellent rock bands from right here in town. Don’t miss this one. Thursday the 27th: Holy Ghost Tent Revival @ Triumph Brewing…
Wednesday the 19th: Social Distortion and Lucero @ Festival Pier Festival Pier is what it is and there’s probably going to be about a thousand people there and it’s going to be a total shit show. But when is the next time you’ll be able to see Social Distortion and Lucero in the same…
Thursday the 6th: Banditos @ Bourbon and Branch I was lucky enough to share the stage with these guys awhile back and they fucking kill it. They’ve got a great down and dirty roots rock thing going on. They sound a little bite like Futurebirds but dirtier. Thursday the 6th: J. Roddy Walston & The…
I’ll shoot it straight with you guys. Here at EBE we get contacted fairly regularly from bands, managers or promoters trying get us to push a new single or an upcoming gig. Through a combination of laziness and the fact that most of it just isn’t that good we ignore the majority of these inquiries….
Wednesday the 29th: Jason Isbell @ The Electric Factory Former member of the Drive-By Truckers and a power house in his own right, Jason Isbell has become somewhat of a alt-country heavy weight. Also Black Mills is opening for him… I hadn’t heard of this dude until recently but he’s fucking amazing…. Friday the 31st: St. James…
Thursday the 16th: Neil Young and Band of Horses @ Susquehanna Bank Center Neil Young & Promises of the Real and Band of Horses. The chances seem pretty good that he’ll be doing some sort of weird ultra political shit but fuck it…. it’s Neil Young. I’ll be there will you? Friday the 17th: Ruby…
Charlie Parr is a man from another time. He plays country blues and he plays it damn well. Also he’s a native of the land from whence I came, so I’ve got to rep the Minnesota talent. However, even if he wasn’t from ‘The Land of 10,000 Lakes‘ I’d probably still be writing…
This is something we’ve been workshopping for awhile now. It’s been through many iterations but I’ve decided it’s time for these session to see the light of day. This is a rough outline, a pilot if you will. We’ll flesh out these EBE Sessions as time goes on and I’ll make no promises but I’d…
Friday the 26th: Creepoid and Ecstatic Vision @ Johnny Brenda’s Two heavy hitting psych bands from right here in Philly. It’s Creepoid’s record release show and Johnny Brenda’s is always a great room so this one is bound to be good. Friday the 26th: Charlie Parr @ The World Cafe, Wilmington Ya it’s not quite…
