4/24 Do You Like Good Music?!?

Then you might like what The Strutt has to offer this TONIGHT!

Two of Kalamazoo’s brightest newcomers are coming together to support a band touring all the way from Seattle, WA. I’m talking about TOTALLY RAD / NO BAILS / THE CURIOUS MYSTERY of course!!

After you’re done searching through the house for plastic capsules filled with teeth rotting processed sugar, eating far too much food, spending time with distant and unwelcomed relatives, or whatever else you’re supposed to do on Easter, come on down to your friendly neighborhood The Strutt and celebrate the correct way. BY WATCHING A KICKIN’ SHOW!!

Check it out:

The Curious Mystery has a lot going for them. They’ve got a killer garage/soul sound that many bands try for and few really pull off. Plus, they’re on one of the coolest and most respected indie labels, K Recs (Calvin Johnson, Kimya Dawson, Mahjongg, Old Time Relijun, City Center…).

The band has an amazing ability to jump between sweet soul melodies, lo-fi garage punk riffs and spaced out psych jams à la Captain Beefheart. All the while managing to stay fresh, interesting and concise.

We here at DIT(K) are more than a little excited to see them live!

You haven’t really been to a concert until you’ve seen local heavy weights Totally Rad. They’ve got just one goal: TO STOMP OUT WINTER’S LAST HOLD ON MICHIGAN AND BRING IN THE SUMMER FUN ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!

Totally Rad is a pop punk band with a heavy dose of surf rock throwback. Featuring members of HMS, Victory! that “just wanna play music that people can dance to.”

Rounding out the night is UFO Dictator‘s own garage punk gods and goddess NO BAILS! When the man behind such a legendary Kalamazoo record label starts a band, you know it’s gonna be good. They DO NOT disappoint!

Doors at 8:30. First band at 9:30. $5. ALL AGES
