Wednesday: Mice Parade at The Tree Bar

Though a coincidence – a tour date in Columbus a day after their 7th album is released – you can pretend like Mice Parade’s show at The Tree Bar on Wednesday night is a CD release party.

Candela‘s a great late-night listen – layers of sounds filling each song leading some to label Mice Parade as a shoegazer band. The hypnotic sway of the first single, “This River Has a Tide”, doesn’t prove contrary to this idea.

Download: “Contesa” (MP3)

The band is the brainchild of NYC’s Adam Pierce (mix those letters up and you get … yep … Mice Parade) and includes members of bands such as HiM, Dylan Group and the Swirlies.

Feature Films (featuring ex-members of Heavy Mole, Audion, and the Blue Revision) and solo artist Dan Lippel open the show. The cover is $7.

Ugh. This looks so sick. It’s from an upcoming documentary narrated by Henry Rollins about DC graffiti legend Cool “Disco” Dan. It is tight because it shows how Disco Dan’s contribution to local culture helped lighten the mood in our Nation’s Capital during the onslaught of the crack epidemic in the 80’s.
