Tirra Lirra
Chicago's Tirra Lirra released their debut ep Breathe Bodies back in August of 2007 on Static Station Records. They mix traditional rock with pounding, almost tribal, rhythms, modular synthesizers and samplers. Chris Mathis, Jared Sheldon, Tony Janas, Brian Hank Henry have been playing shows around the city for the past two years, and with each performance improving on the primal nature of their sound. Last week the boys found themselves in New York playing with fellow Chicago outfit Magical, Beautiful. Not being in a band myself, I can only image the feeling of being on tour, and introducing a whole new audience to your live sound. When I asked Tirra Lirra about their experience in New York, they had this to say, "Our show this past weekend @ Death By Audio in Brooklyn was blessed by a 10 story neon VOTE OBAMA sign on the building next door, and our first encounter with THOTH of the Angel Tunnel in Central Park. Expect us to channel one or both on Saturday at the Bottom Lounge".
Tirra Lirra will be performing the Saturday (Oct. 25th) at The Bottom Lounge with Chicago's Clique Talk and Fujiya & Miyagi. The show starts at 9:00pm, and tickets are $15. This is an 18+ show.
