The Wake

Head down to the Triple Rock this Friday for a four band rock lineup for a price you should be able to afford even in this economic turmoil. This is a dollar a band (plus tip), so there ought to be plenty of money left over in your wallet to snag some nearby Taco Bell. Magic Castles are self-proclaimed proponents of the “Mysticore” genre, which City Pages calls an “intentionally disorganized style of harmonization backed by a shimmering wall of gongs and throat singing,”. The Dad In Common bring politically themed rock stylings to a slow-drive gospel sound. Marvelle bring the baroque to their heavy sound, which features band member Linnea painting canvases live. The Knotwells blend together bluegrass, punk and country in a bombastic cocktail of rock and roll. Altogether, they comprise a powerful show that you shouldn’t pass up.
