Sundown at the Carousel with The Everymen, Overlake, and Dentist, 7/5/15

Presented with Little Dickman Records and Arcade Radio

It's really great when you get to do something cool with your friends. Little Dickman Records, Arcade Radio, and I have gotten together to present what I think is an extremely cool show in a unique venue.

We'll be bringing The Everymen, Overlake, and Dentist to Asbury Park's Carousel Building for a holiday weekend closeout on July 5th that promises to be a memorable evening full of fun, friendship, and great sounds. I've written extensively here about all three of the bands on this bill, and I'm happy to call each one of them friends of mine.

It's a real treat to bring the many-headed touring machine of The Everymen back home to the Jersey Shore for a now all-too-rare East Coast performance. They're just back from touring with The War On Drugs, and they'll be home for Independence Day Weekend. We decided to grab them while we could, and we couldn't be more excited.

Overlake have been making more frequent incursions into Asbury Park from their Jersey City home, but it's never enough for me. I recommend this band every time anyone asks me for suggestions on a bill, so it was a no-brainer to include them on one I had a hand in presenting. I can't wait to hear their beautiful noise bounce around the big space inside the carousel.

And Dentist. Some of our bestest besties. Justin and Emily will be performing as a duo and recreating some of the magic and intimacy they brought to their opening slot for Television at The Stone Pony late last year. They don't do this often, and Dentist's songs take on a whole new personality in this setup. It's something you won't want to miss.

It's great to be working with Little Dickman and Arcade Radio on this -- a bunch of great people who really care about doing interesting things to showcase the city of Asbury Park and to bring us music from New Jersey and beyond. Something like an early evening, all ages event in a beautiful space is just their style.

This is coming up quickly. Everything takes place this Sunday, July 5th, starting at 5pm. Bring your whole family. Tell all your friends, and let's celebrate together inside one of the defining landmarks of the Jersey Shore.
