Tonight: All of Them Witches, The Malones, and The Etchings



Tonight shall be a night to remember. We have a musical trifecta, All of Them Witches, The Malones, and The Etchings, conjoining at Goodbar tonight. Needless to say, I will be in the front making a scene in excitement. But one thing that will not be exciting is the knowledge that this will be the last Malones show that Buffalo or otherwise shall see...indefinitely. How does that make you feel?

It makes me sad. However, we have an awesome line-up with the mathy All of Them Witches and the indie/pop/alt-rock of The Etchings. Come out; the music starts at 11PM and it's only $3! The show is also 21 and up, so bring dem IDs.






Tonight: Underground Zombie Invasion


Tonight, Babeville will be holding Underground Zombie Invasion in the basement of the historic church located at 341 Delaware Avenue. On the bill are three local bands: The Merchants, Young Suns and The Etchings. Event promoters, Terror Technologies, will be providing zombie make up for free to all attendees at this Halloween themed event. Young Suns, who are a recent band having just started in 2011, play instrumental heavy rock and will be sure to play an atmospheric set fitting for the show. The Merchants and The Etchings will be playing more traditional rock. Doors open at 7, show starts at 8 and it will cost only 5$ to get in.

Local Artist Spotlight: Young Suns


In their own words, Young Suns are "instrumental, atmospheric, and heavy,"   and they pretty much hit the nail on the head.  The "instrumental" tag draws comparisons to groups like Explosions in the Sky, Russian Circles, or maybe even their Buffalo peers in All of Them Witches.  As for being "atmospheric and heavy," the four piece, comprised of guitarists Ryan Higgins and Dan Moscov, bassist Ron Hensberry, and drummer Adam Lilley, craft expansive songs that manage to be equally as beautiful as they are powerful.  Young Suns' biggest strength is the ability to pull off that mix without ever overwhelming or boring their listeners - a good example is their song "Whale Fall" (below) where an epic beginning turns into an anxious crescendo.  All in all, bands sans vocalists aren't exactly run-of-the-mill, and as for Young Suns, it is interesting to listen to their songs without the distraction of lyrics.

Their next show is this Thursday, October 18, at the Ninth Ward.  They make up 1/3 of the entertainment for the "Underground Zombie Invasion" along with The Merchants and The Etchings.  The show is $5 - Doors are at 7 and the show starts at 8.  Added Bonus: Free zombie makeup for all.





Tonight: Ava Luna



Tonight, Ava Luna will be headlining the Ninth Ward at Babeville (341 Delaware Ave.) with support from local acts Applennium and The Etchings. Ava Luna is a Brooklyn-based septet, lead by Carlos Hernandez’ R&B vocals backed by sultry fashionistas pumping out hip soul music for the hip twenty-something. They will be supported by The Etchings, an incredibly British-sounding (Aqualung meets Snow Patrol with a little bit of Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s) local foursome who might be on your radar due to their key spot opening for Bedouin Sound Clash last summer at the Town Ballroom. Also on the bill is Buffalo-based Appelennium, a very clean sounding and very vocal-centric quartet reminiscent of First Aid Kit or Band Of Horses. Doors are at 7pm with an 8 doll hair cover.
