Amanda’s SD Show Calendar 4/11-4/17

Posted on by Amanda

I don’t know about you, but I had a lovely week/end of music this week. Between discovering The Tilt at the Belly Up and dancing so hard to Parade of Lights, I’m a happy girl (even if I still have a charlie horse in my calf).

New Band Alert/Love: The Tilt

Posted on by Amanda

Last night I was sitting at The Belly Up waiting for Italian Japanese to take the stage when I was met with this crazy force of female vocals. I wasn’t really sure what I was experiencing, all I knew is that I liked it.

“Fronted by lead singer Jesse Malley, and guitarist Jeff Irwin, The Tilt is a fresh brew of Organic Rock. Joining are members are Mike Stone drums, Billy Joe Clements bass, Ryan Weiss guitar. Members from The Pheromones, The Grass Heat and Family Wagon joined up to create the band – The Tilt.”

In a fushion of rock, blues, and country, local SD band The Tilt took The Belly Up stage by force and I’m wondering how I’ve missed them. You can download their ep from Facebook and check out their website.

I can’t wait to see them play again 🙂

I realize this is coming at you much later than it should be. Although, I suppose I could have just forgotten all together. Point being, I had a very busy weekend and I forgot that I wasn’t going to have time yesterday to put out my calendar like usual. Sunday was my day of rest and it kind of just bit me in the ass. Ha ha. I’m hoping you all just looked at the Keep in Mind section from last week…

Thankfully (maybe only for me) this is a rather light week of music. Although Saturday looks to be rather busy…
