Jordan Carr & The Boys will be headlining the 7th Street Entry on Friday, December 14th.
Supportive Parents and Bird Streets will open.



If you didn’t know, Bird Streets is the stagename of Brooklyn-based musician John Brodeur. We actually caught Brodeur, when he was performing under his name, in April 2011, and said, “In contrast to the full Humbugs band, John Brodeur was very minimalistic with his one-man show. It’s kind of interesting to see Brodeur playing all the acoustic, loops, beat boxing, tambourine, etc., all in real-time.”


This time around, as Bird Streets, he will be accompanied with a live band.



Bird Streets Tour Dates:


Dec. 7 – Albany, N.Y. – The Hollow

Dec. 9 – Washington, D.C. – Songbyrd Vinyl Lounge
