This concert is supported by EMBER Audio + Video.
The dB's will expand the bounds of our local-centric "Southern Idiom" concert series with their first official tour in 30 years, celebrating the reissue of their 1981 debut LP "Stands for Decibels," widely considered one of the great "lost" power pop albums of the 1980s. Formed in late-1970s New York City by R J Reynolds High School alumni Peter Holsapple, Chris Stamey, Will Rigby, and Gene Holder, The dB's are often regarded as the band that bridged the gap between classic '70s power pop and the jangly new wave of smart, alterna-pop made famous by groups like R.E.M.
Originally launched as an exhibition series for local visual artists, "Southern Idiom" has grown into a concert series celebrating the diverse artistry of Winston-Salem musicians, past and present. This show marks the sixth concert in the series, which has previously featured Victoria Victoria, Withdrew, Jonathan Kirby, Sonny Miles, and Maia Kamil.
