TONIGHT: Asobi Seksu/The Trillions/Canary Oh Canary/Absent Center at The Camel!

by | Nov 10, 2011 | MUSIC

This should be a pretty amazing show. Asobi Seksu are an excellent shoegaze/dream-pop group who wowed us when they played Strange Matter back in the spring. This show comes pretty close to the end of their North American tour for their latest album, Fluorescence, so don’t miss them, because it might be a while before they come through again. The Trillions have been making a name for themselves around Richmond for quite a while, delivering excellent live sets at several local clubs recently, as well as at the RVA Music Fest a couple months back. Canary Oh Canary are a pretty new local band who’ve picked up a buzz recently with their drawn-out, psychedelic take on indie rock. You’ll hear a lot more about them once our next issue comes out in a couple of weeks (spoiler alert), but for now, just trust us–their live performances are not to be missed. Rounding out the bill is Absent Center, a local band we don’t know too much about thus far. But if they’ve managed to be included on a bill like this, there’s no doubt that they’ve got something going for them. So what are you waiting for? Head to the Camel tonight for a can’t-miss evening of rockin’ sounds!

WHO: Asobi Seksu, The Trillions, Canary Oh Canary, Absent Center
WHERE: The Camel, 1621 W. Broad St.
