Earning comparisons to The Violent Femmes, Steve Earle, and The White Stripes, The California trio The Devil Makes Three inaugurates TVD's first foray into Baltimore with a 24-Hour Ticket Giveaway to give this new week a kick in the pants.
"With a slightly punky perspective on vintage American blues, The Devil Makes Three is a breath of fresh musical air on its eponymous Milan debut. Laced with elements of ragtime, country, folk and rockabilly, the critically praised, drummer-less trio – consisting of guitarist/frontman Pete Bernhard, stand-up bassist Lucia Turino and guitarist Cooper McBean – brings forth a genuine approach to acoustic music that is deeply steeped in rhythm."
“We play mainly rock venues where it’s not seated,” Pete explains. “Everybody dances. And except for the instrumentation and the fact that we don’t have a drummer, it’s pretty much like a rock gig. It can get pretty crazy, people are dancing and drinking and yelling. And that’s the way we like it.”
TVD's got a pair of tickets for Tuesday night's show at The Talking Head in Baltimore in exchange for your over-the-top pleas to dance, drink and yell. (What better way to get though the week, right?) We'll choose one winner tomorrow morning so make 'em good and make 'em fast!
