OK Go

We love the viral buzz band Los Angeles, by the way of Chicago, OK Go. This band is known for their music videos, and every new one tries to out-do their previous video. It also helps that they write incredibly catchy and fun songs. With their last album released ten years ago (Hungry Ghosts), we are assuming the band has a new album or single in the works.

OK Go (02 Apr 2015)

We previously saw OK Go in Apr 2015 and said, “The OK Go "variety show" also featured three Question and Answer sessions, with the audience asking the band questions... sometime to really personal effect, like "Are you bisexual?" (answer: "Not that I know of.") or "When did you lose your virginity?" (answer: "When I had sex.") The Q&A served as a nice break in the regular "party", and adds a unique moment on the rest of their other shows.”

Winona Forever and MIRTHQUAKE to open.

Tour dates:

Jul 11 Minneapolis, MN, US First Avenue

Jul 12 Des Moines, IA, US 80/35 Festival

Maryland’s The Dangerous Summer will be on tour in June, in support of their new album Gravity (which will be available June 21 on Rude Records). The trio (singer/bassist AJ Perdomo, guitarist Josh Withenshaw, and drummer Christian Zawacki) said they are excited to finally be back with their “Coming Back to Earth”-named tour.

Dangerous Summer (13 Aug 2013)

We previously saw The Dangerous Summer in Aug 2013 and wrote, “The Dangerous Summer was the headliner. From what we can tell, they took their name from an Ernest Hemingway book (which was published after his death) and their music is best described as emo. They have a lot of fans, who knew all their lyrics, so you can tell right away that they write incredibly personal and relatable lyrics. As you can see from the blurry photo of the setlist, they did plenty of songs from their latest album Golden Record, including "Catholic Girls", "Miles Apart", "Honesty", and "Knives". The album just came out last week (August 6, 2013) on Hopeless Records, which you can order direct or pick it up in person at a live show.”

Bad Luck. and rosecoloredworld to open.
