Pan Arcadia * Stalagmite * Blood At Ease

***THIS SHOW IS IN THE THEATER, WHICH IS ON THE 2ND FLOOR & ACCESSIBLE ONLY BY STAIRS. We would love nothing more than to be able to welcome every human into the theater and are working really hard to have an elevator built in the near future.***

Pan Arcadia has been making waves in the NYC music scene. With their high-energy performances and anthemic sound, the band has quickly gained a reputation for electrifying live shows and raw, unapologetic music. Their blend of dueling guitars, soulful crooning vocals, and powerful rhythms captures the essence of rock while pushing boundaries with modern sensibilities. Through sold out gigs at Bowery Ballroom and spotlights in Spin Magazine, the 5-piece has proven themselves a musical force not to be missed.

The band’s next LP, produced by Hugo White (Jessie Ware, The Maccabees, Jamie T, Matt Maltese) and Pete Harper (Sara Bareilles, Madison Cunningham, Theo Katzman) is due this fall.

Kalamazoo-based post-punk project Stalagmite (Noah Shankool – keyboard + vox; LoudFeli – guitar; Lucas Aguado – bass; Brendon Infante – drums) draws from new wave, synth pop, and dance music to create moody atmospheres and infectious grooves.

*****************

Kalamazoo’s Blood At Ease play a style of western music that compares in some ways to the songwriting sensibilities of folk artists from the 1960s while flirting with longer song lengths and darker moods—à la Jason Molina. They are original songwriters. And for those who enjoy storytelling and don’t mind their country-folk shaken up a little bit, there’s real promise already realized.
