This Week's Mix

I have to admit that I was going to do something totally different for this week's mix. Then I found this song from Gang Gang Dance and knew that the mix just needed 9 supporting tracks.

pacificUV - Need
Joy Wants Eternity - Existances Rust
El Ten Eleven - Lorge

Thursday In The Area

Shows are light this Thursday. Here's what to check out:


It's a CD release party at Johnny Brenda's in Philly for Aderbat. Due out today is We Belong To The Sea, "a missive on longing, memory and the experiential Life". Joining the party are Philly bands East Hundred, finishing on a new album themselves, and Bitter Bitter Weeks. If you miss Aderbat tonight, they will also be releasing at The Factory in Doylestown Friday and down at the Lo-Fi Social Club in Baltimore Saturday.

Also in Philly, for a more danceable groove, Gang Gang Dance is at the Manhattan Room. You can also catch them at the Ottobar Friday night.

Over in the District, another all local show is at DC9, featuring Kitty Hawk, Richmond's Hot Lava and Texas transplants Sweet Teeth.

Tuesday in DC

It's Tuesday and there isn't a huge slate of shows tonight. That said, there are a couple worth noting. While the guys have generally decided to take tonight off, the women are out in full force.


New York noise rockers Gang Gang Dance are playing a show at Rock 'N Roll Hotel tonight. They will be supported by local favorites Exit Clov.

Gang Gang Dance - Nomad For Love (Cannibal)
Exit Clov - Violent Berries


Back in the 90's, Velocity Girl were local heroes. Tonight you can welcome one of your own home when Sarah Shannon returns to Black Cat. She will be joined on the bill by DC's The Andalusians.
