As part of our 1 year anniversary bash, we have a really special night planned for you (including FREE CAKE!). Xroadrunner finally released their long awaited album and boy is it fire! Over a year in the studio, watch it come to life on the stage! Mad Jupiter, a Rock Shack favorite returns from Boston with some new releases too. Their music features thought provoking lyrics, memorable melodies, and instrumental passages that will have you literally screaming for more. Tunnels' fresh take on alt rock and their enthusiastic style has seen them storming the scene and building in popularity like a boulder rolling down a mountain. Danny Zangari is well known for being a member of Mr. Fatty but he has an extensive, well written and recorded, body of work of his own that you MUST check out. Prepare to be surprised and thrilled. Altogether, this promises to be a night that will not disappoint.
