Continuing Tradition: A Night of Energetic Performances
Continuing in the proud, sweaty, stale-beer-on-the-floor tradition that is the New Brunswick DIY basement scene, an un-identified, illuminated venue hosted a great Thursday night of music featuring NJ up and comers Owel, France, and Meet Pause with Victor Shores hailing all the way from North Dakota.
France Samples Work From Recent EP
France sampled some of the work of their most recent EP, offering a fresh sound that resonates with the youthful and vibrant energy of the New Brunswick music scene.
Owel's Orchestral Spin Captivates
Owel closed out the night with their orchestral spin on The Black Keys’ “Everlasting Light” and their own outstanding track “Snowglobe”. The depth and arrangement of Owel's performance proved to be a perfect bookend to an evening of genre-spanning music.
