Tuesday February 14, 2023 ~ 8pm

Anti-valentine's show

 

Come join us for an Ant-Valentine’s Day Show and Get Together featuring music from Wychwood and Libby & Cal. 

Valentine’s Day is another weird holiday where you’re supposed to prove your love by buying stuff –  and that “love” is a really specific, exclusive kind. If you find that gross, annoying, or uncomfortable, we’ve got the concert for you!

Wychwood, the world’s first blackgrass band are excited to play a bunch of old songs about rejecting or escaping conventional romance (sometimes tragically but more often happily). 

Libby & Cal, purveyors of hjangly strings and smooth harmonies, will play their new songs about alternative love. In response to popular lyrics about self-sacrifice and unrealistic devotion, their new album proposes something different: a step off the relationship escalator. There are many roads to Happy Ever After and marriage is only one possibility. 

You can listen to Libby & Cal’s album “If You’ve Given Up on Love then Let’s Call it Something Else” on Bandcamp
