Vassar-bred and ready to cause trouble, Spud Cannon is the quintessential college band that deserves to make it big.

Having repeatedly snuck onto their campus’ squash courts to record their Wall Of Sound-inspired brand of indie, this band knows no bounds and is willing to do all they can to make quality art.

And although this band has no roots in the District, they will be graciously joined by soul-punk locals Lightmare to show them the ropes.

This is a chance to see two of the most dynamic bands on the scene. Get a taste for the sounds of Poughkeepsie while paying respect to DC’s very own.
