Gasoline Silver @ The Whistler
On the first single from Gasoline Silver's debut album, "Indianapolis", the band shows that you can combine Bob Dylan and modern electro-punk. It's a jarring mixture at first, but there is something familiar and exciting about it. Ron Franklin is the lead singer and has long been known for two things, his love for the blues and his hair. In Gasoline Silver he has found the multi-layered synthesizers of John Misner and the driving drums of Andy Hertel.
Based in Minneapolis, the band is making their Chicago debut at The Whistler tonight (8/23) at 10pm to celebrate the September 7th release of their 11-track self-titled debut album on Victorian Pictures. As with all shows at The Whistler this is a free event.
