Man, it seems like only yesterday that I was jamming to that Movies With Heroes/In Clover split EP. But alas, it wasn’t. It’s been a few years since Theory 8 put out that CD and just about eight years since those fine folks in Nashville have been in business.
Yes, eight years for Theory 8. And the label/management company likes the sound of that so much that it’s adding another eight into the mix by hosting a birthday bash with eight bands on the bill at Nashville’s Mercury Mercy Lounge. It’s all going down on Labor Day (Sept. 1 at 9:00 p.m. EST), so there will no doubt be plenty of celebratory action going down.
Here’s a taste of what you’ll be getting, if you do indeed plan on celebrating:
Keegan DeWitt - Stormy Weather
The Nobility - Halleluiah Chorus
The Privates - Heart’s Got a Hole
The Protomen - Hope Rides Alone
Caitlin Rose - Answer in One of These Bottles
Chanel Campbell is also playing, but I couldn’t get my hands on any mp3s.
You ever listen to any of their other bands? Obviously their most well known acts are Forget Cassettes, and De Novo Dahl but I absolutely love Apollo Up!, The Whole Fantastic World, and In Clover. Good stuff!
They should have planned this a little better and had it on 8/8/08. OH WELL.
Just for the record, it’s at The Mercy Lounge. Not Mercury Lounge. I believe that’s an NYC venue.
It’s going to be a great show.
thanks for the catch. i hate that place, because i always do that with the name.
The Goodbye Letter was really good.
