Dead Bob and The Honeymans to rock St. Patrick’s Day
Bring your kids to the Kimberley Curling Rink and celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with Dead Bob and guests The Honeymans.
Dead Bob is the solo incarnation of John Wright, drummer of long time and legendary, but now retired, punk rock band Nomeansmo.
‘Life Like,’ a NMN cover actually, is the title track of the first album John has released on his own.
Recorded and produced by John in the wilds of British Columbia, this album’s material spans several decades and there is lots more in the archives.
Though primarily written and performed by John he can’t take all the credit having engaged the help of several friends to get this thing done. Byron Slack (Invasives), Kristy Lee Audette (Rong), Ford Pier (Ford Pier and the Vengeance Trio, DOA, Roots Round up, Junior Gone Wild, Rheostatics), Selina Martin, his son Aidan Wright, as well as two old collabs with brother Rob in the writer’s chair.
As might be expected the songs roll out cohesively but defy the cookie cutter pigeon holes, hence “Genre” is a tough one to convey but one thing that is not unclear is it is not to be listened to quietly!
This is an all ages event with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. The Honeymans play at 7 p.m., with Dead Bob taking the stage at 8:15.
Tickets on sale, exclusively at Berley Skate in Kimberley, for $30.
