Squirrels from Hell + Grave's End + Cat Janice + Dottie Scharr @ The Way Station

8pm- Squirrels from Hell

Genre: Low-Volume Underground Garage Rock

For fans of: original music that spans multiple styles, but always with honesty, energy, and lyrics that reach for the true depiction of life in 21st Century America.

Known as “The Band New York City Couldn’t Kill,” these long-time original rockers have weathered all the storms life and our corrupt culture can muster. They push on, driven by the demands of an artistic inspiration that will not release them. While they freely share much of their music at www.hellsville.com, only the raw but controlled energy of a live performance will demonstrate how Squirrels From Hell continue to influence NY music culture.

SFH have been celebrated for their “Art Punk oddness,” and officially designated “The lowest of the low-rent bands,” whatever that means.

here’s one video, the band finally meshed at around 12:15 on the track: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX3nZwrxtuA
