The Burren | Somerville, MA

THE GRIP WEEDS music is often described as 'power-pop,’ landing them on the top of the Little Steven’s Underground Garage "Coolest Song In The World” list, as well as in several television & film projects. Their newest LP "Soul Bender" is melodically inventive, yet accessible with lyrical imagery and hooks firing at you from all directions. Filled to the brim with uplifting choruses and playful melodies, "Soul Bender" is their biggest and most dramatic album to date. The group consists of Kurt Reil (drums), Kristin Pinell Reil (lead gtr), Rick Reil (gtrs, keyboards) and Dave DeSantis (bass). Don't miss their show at The Burren! The Grip Weeds will perform selected songs from Soul Bender as well as many of their 'coolest songs' from their back catalog https://www.facebook.com/gripweeds
TIGER BOMB is an all female garage-pop & rock outfit based out of Portland, Maine. The band fuses catchy original songs with blistering guitars, soaring harmonies, and a ferocious high-energy "claws-out" attitude. Fronted by two girl-group legends, Lynda Mandolyn of the renowned San Francisco all-girl group Fabulous Disaster and Chris Horne of Portland's all-girl garage rockers, The Brood. Anchoring the group is the rock-solid rhythm section of Amanda Ayotte on bass (Legendary Unknowns) and Jessica Smith on drums (The Resistance). These super chicks are a musical force setting dance floors ablaze throughout New England with their wild live shows. A thrill-packed dancing & listening experience with some of the most playable sounds around today! "Tiger Bomb is four girls leaning more to the sweet/tough sound of pop... cool songs... rocking and full of fun" - Paul Collins of The Paul Collins Beat. “Nothin' like a garage band made up of ass-kickin' chicks utilizing harmonies and hooks” - Palmyra Delran, DJ on Little Steven’s Underground Garage on Sirius/XM.
