$8 // 21+TROY ANDERSON (Record Release)ROOKIEGAL GUN----------------We had the immense pleasure of hosting TROY ANDERSON twice this past year as he opened for THE YAWPERS and freaking MIKE KROL to a packed house. We’re honored to welcome him back for the debut of his new album, Cool Pop, New Soda. A rock 'n' roll five-piece named after their primary songwriter and hailing from - you guessed it -- lovely Chicago, IL, that’ll have you drooling and fooling for more after every pop-soaked down stroke.New band ROOKIE returns after opening a packed show for their homies in THE NUDE PARTY back in September. Debuted on our stage nearly a year ago, the self-described “classic rock” quintet is helmed by JOE BORDENARO on drums/vocals and MAX LOEBMAN of YOKO AND THE OH Nos on guitar.Shooting for understated complexity topped off by instantly accessible melodies, GAL GUN stands out from the crowded Chicago garage-rock scene. Drawing heavy influences from 90's behemoths like Weezer and Blur while balancing a softer sound influenced by Belle & Sebastian and The Shins, their sound is equal parts familiar and refreshing.
