Sun Club
|
Sun Club (not to be confused with Netherland’s The Sunclub) came on stage to Kate Bush’s “Wuthering Heights,” ready to violently and spastically destroy the dance floor. As we have previously written, the band’s music styling is both “violent convulsions” and “sexy dancing.”
The dance group (featuring Shane McCord, Adam Shane, Mikey Powers, Devin McCord, Kory Johnson) recently signed to ATO Records and was happy to play some new tunes they’ve written for their upcoming The Dongo Durango album, including sunny song “Summer Feet.”
One of the two main singers, Shane McCord, was pretty amazed that some “lovely, lovely, lovely” fans knew their songs and singing along. A number of dancing fans in the front came out early just to see Sun Club.
The Districts (singer Rob Grote, bassist Connor Jacobus, guitarist Pat Cassidy, and drummer Braden Lawrence) took the stage slightly later than advertised, playing “Chlorine” from their latest A Flourish and a Spoil.
Their sophomore record has been getting a lot of buzz with indie fans, especially after peaking at #7 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and #28 on the Top Independent Albums chart.
Setlist
|
As you can see from their setlist, the majority of tracks were from A Flourish and a Spoil. However, you might not recognize the song “Airplane”, as they’ve indicated that it is a brand new song. This was followed by their set closer (and probably their biggest hit with the fans), “4th & Roebling”.
After a few minutes in the back, the band came back on stage to play one last song for the encore, “Young Blood”.
