Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks w/ Nurses

Stephen Malkmus and The Jicks return to Slowdown. Remember the last time they came to town? It was the very night Obama won the presidential election back in 2008. That being the case, this upcoming Jicks show will be a bit less surreal, but hearing new, proggy songs from the famous Pavement frontman (that’d be [...]

Bronze Radio Return w/ The Brew

New Englanders, Bronze Radio Return’s newest album is called “SHAKE! SHAKE! SHAKE!” If that doesn’t intrigue you, then I’m not sure what will. When the indie band formed, they needed some direction for their sound. Lead singer/guitarist, Chris Henderson, remembered his father’s old bronze radio and he knew: let’s bring back sounds people feel familiar [...]
