FILED UNDER: Artists, Concert Previews, Events, News, Johnny Brenda's, The Lone Bellow
We just got word of a big treat for fans of XPN’s February Artist to Watch The Lone Bellow. The Georgia-born, Brooklyn-based close-harmony group was added to the bill of Ivan & Alyosha’s appearance at Johnny Brenda’s on April 16th. The band released its self-tltled record on January 22, and it was met with acclaim from NPR Music, which praised its “songs of survival and redemption, written out of necessity rather than opportunity.” Below, watch a music video for The Lone Bellow’s single “Two Sides of Lonely”; get more information on their Johnny Brenda’s appearance at the WXPN Concert Calendar (powered by The Swollen Fox).
