RVA MUSIC FEST: Baby Help Me Forget

by | Aug 13, 2011 | MUSIC

Starting as an amalgam of Richmond favorites The Milkstains and The Color Kittens, Baby Help Me Forget have become one of the strongest live acts the city has to offer. Their nostalgic embrace of what rock music meant to all of us in our youth is the perfect remedy for nights when boredom is a symptom and whiskey a potential cure. Singer Jamie Lay prowls across all corners of the stage, and if the moment feels right, he may hurl a microphone stand into the audience as the band plays on unrelentingly. Baby Help Me Forget will be playing the Strange Matter Showcase at the RVA Music Fest on Saturday, September 10th.
