The DC Area Deli Magazine is proud to present a special night at DC9, next week on Thursday, July 17th. National touring act Cheers Elephant (from LA via Philly) will be joined by their friends The Trillions (from Richmond) and The Jackfields (featuring beloved DC musicians Mike Reina and Anthony Pirog performing as a duo), for an incredible night of catchy psychedelia laced with mind-blowing guitar wizardry.
Cheers Elephant is currently on a country-wide tour that will see them opening for the likes of The Zombies ("It’s the time of the se-ea-son for looooo-ving!"), as they’re set to become the next big thing in psychedelic guitar pop. The Trillions are Richmond favorites, named on of Virginia’s top 10 bands by Paste magazine. Both Mike Reina and Anthony Pirog have absolutely ridiculous resumes, playing in numerous bands in DC, NY and beyond, including together with (Smashing Pumpkins drummer) Jimmy Chamberlain in Skysaw.
If you love fun, sun-drenched tunes, shiney, happy, guitars, and catchy, melodic, but seriously impressive musicianship, you can’t miss this show. DC9, Thursday, July 17th. 8:00 PM. $10. –Natan Press
