Who’s excited to see some good pop punk bands play this week? I know I am!  This Sunday, Toronto natives Junior Battles will visit Kalamazoo to bring us some sick tunes from the chilly north.

Grand Rapids foursome Cain Marko will also be in attendance, bringing their brand of gritty pop punk rock reminiscent of Hot Water Music.

Indie Punks Tiger! Tiger! will be joining us as well and I’m really stoked to see them play again. It’s been far too long.  Fans of Weatherbox or The Wonder Years are going to really like these guys. (Photo credit: Mike Rice Photography)

And no Kzoo show would be complete without at least one local in attendance. Lucky for us, we get two! The boys in Natural Disasters and Ackley Kid will grace us with their rowdy presence and balance out the out of town pop punk with some harder local flavor.  Expect to nod your head, move your feet, and shout along!

The show is $7 and starts at 7:30. It’s a punk show, but there’s no punk time so show up on time so you don’t miss all the bands!
