Wed Sep 27 2023 Giacomo Turra with Electrik Ants atSundown at Granada Dallas, TX
Giacomo Turra is an Italian musician born in 1997. Intrigued by the vinyls of his father, Giacomo started playing guitar at the age of 13, learning by jamming on his favorite artists like Stevie Wonder, George Benson and Herbie Hancock.
In 2018, he started his solo musical project, exploring R&B, Funk and Jazz and releasing his first singles under the name JMT between 2019 and 2020.
On August 26th, Giacomo released his first original single “Get Into The Groove” with Vokall Records. The following day, Giacomo and his band played their debut show, opening for Joss Stone, Candy Dulfer and many more artists at the summer edition of the Soul Live

In November 2022, Giacomo and his band went on their first headliner tour in Italy, with sold out shows in Milan, Bologna and Rome.
Electrik Ants are a bunch of dudes that were born, a bunch of stuff happened and then they got together and formed a band. Five multi-instrumentalists with sax, turntables, drums, bass, guitar, keys, synth and percussion, creating a sound that’s equally deeply familiar and cosmically adventurous.

Wed Oct 18 2023 The Expendables with Bumpin Uglies & Claire Wright atGranada Theater Dallas, TX
The Expendables have said they haven’t proven anything, but in their nearly 25-year career since starting out as a spirited party band in high school covering surf-rock nuggets such as Dick Dale’s “Miserloo” and “Wipe Out” for birthdays and family gatherings. A quarter-century later, elementary school buddies Raul Bianchi, Adam Peterson and Geoff Weers, along with bassist Ryan DeMars, who joined in 2000, have forged a unique original sound born in the laid-back beach life of their Santa Cruz, CA. hometown.
The Expendables’ infectious hybrid of ska, surf-rock, punk, reggae and metal can be heard in their latest streaming track, “Surfman Cometh,” a spaghetti-western meets “Pipeline” twang that could easily form the soundtrack to the latest Quentin Tarantino film. The song is the first release from the group’s new and improved Band Room, their longtime rehearsal space in a 1,100 square foot warehouse and former wine cellar on Coral Street, where Adam Patterson took charge of the mix to great effect.
Bumpin Uglies & Claire Wright open the show.

Wed Nov 01 2023 Pigeons Playing Ping Pong atGranada Theater Dallas, TX

Hailed as “musical explorers” by Rolling Stone, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong first took flight roughly a decade ago at the University of Maryland, and the pysch-funk trailblazers have since gone on to play more than a thousand shows across 44 states. In just the past two years alone, the band has co-billed at Red Rocks, played halftime at Madison Square Garden, performed on Adult Swim’s FishCenter Live, celebrated the tenth anniversary of their beloved music festival, Domefest, and even earned their first headlining arena show. The Baltimore quartet’s latest album, ‘Presto,’ is their most sophisticated and joyful collection to date, drawing on everything from funk to rock to electronic music as it builds off the group’s unparalleled live energy and hits new heights of emotional and technical maturity. At a time when America seems to grow more divided by the day, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong still believes in the power of music to bring people together, and ‘Presto’ is a big, bold album all about celebrating the present and sharing it with the ones we love most.
Dogs In A Pile open the show.

Empathy Test was formed in London (UK) in 2013, by childhood friends Isaac Howlett (vocals/songwriting) and Adam Relf (production/composition). The pair captivated listeners around the world with their debut track, Losing Touch. Since then, Empathy Test has self-produced and released three stunning albums: Losing Touch (Remastered) and Safe From Harm in 2017 and Monsters in 2020.
Empathy Test’s “big dramatic sound swoons ecstatically between the nostalgic and immediate” (KCRW), earning them comparisons with classic acts such as Depeche Mode and A Flock of Seagulls, as well as modern synth-pop acts like CHVRCHES, Purity Ring and Hurts.
Despite being offered more than their fair share of record deals, Empathy Test has chosen to make their own path, building a legion of dedicated fans while still managing to earn features from the likes of Vice on HBO, MTV’s Catfish, Netflix, Fresh on the Net, BBC Introducing, Clash, LoBF, Earmilk, PopMatters and many more. Celebrity fans include legendary electronic musician Midge Ure and Boy George, who described them as “a musical orgasm” via his official Twitter account.
NITE is a band from Dallas, Texas – From burgeoning rock and rolled into a thrashing metal anthem, surged with the fire of 80s synth “Good Boy” bellows out of your speakers and into your consciousness. It’s NITE taking over.
The twin duo of Kyle and Myles Mendes are the masterminds behind NITE – the electronica-
infused dream rock dominating musical and lyrical soundscapes with its swooping industrial undertones and electric guitar overtones. “Good Boy” they say, is an anthem about saying no to addiction, and unhealthy relationships.
“Since the instrumentation set up the song to be more grungy, we wanted the lyrics to be
playful, almost vindictive,” NITE explains, “‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’” by Twisted Sister was a reference for how we wanted the chorus to sound. We wanted to repeat a strong and spiteful message. We paced in circles writing the lyrics, while Myles’ black cat knocked everything he could off the table at our feet. He may have inspired the title and chorus, and he is featured in the ‘Good Boy’ music video.”
The visual component is a dark testament to the resounding emblematic “Good Boy” lyrics.
NITE doesn’t intend to hide in the shade, but rather embrace the blackness of shadow from the song itself. “We were influenced to delve into the horror drama by playing the video game, ‘Dead By Daylight’ with our friends. This is a horror/survivor game featuring killers like Michael Myers, Freddie Crougar, and Ghost Face. We researched classic horror films like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Halloween, and Saw which inspired us to create our own Killer. We chose our Too Spooky mascot to be the Killer: a black cat with a wicked, red smile. Dressed in all black and weilding a knife, we think he fits the archetype perfectly.”
The fusion of the song came together in NITE’s own home studio, where their creativity was
able to thrive in their own developed spaces. “Both of us have our own home recording studios where we track our instruments and vocals. The bass riff was the first instrument we tracked for ‘Good Boy.’ It set the tone for a dark, gritty dance anthem,” they say. “After the instrumental was completed we tracked our drummer, Phil, in our rehearsal space. We hope that we captured the intense energy we express on stage in the recording.”
NITE has already garnished bigwig accolades, and praise, having shared stages alongside
Small Black, The New Division, DREAMERS, The Griswolds, Clean Bandit, Midge Ure
(Ultravox), and Modern English. Their Sleepless album dropped in 2020 (Cleopatra), followed by the album’s remix in 2021. Their dark wave cover of Alice in Chains’ “Would?” foreshadows what they call a new darker direction for the band’s intended musical journey to come. And as we wait for NITE to come with a dream-packed punch of dark, hard, industrial rock, we’re able to dance, groove, and embody this latest single. Like a “Good Boy”. – Eric Alper
