Get To Know: Night Beats

July 21, 2011 1 Comment

Right before Night Beats launch their tour with Black Lips in Charlotte NC, they’ll be stopping by Chattanooga via JJ’s Bohemia Tuesday, July 26th!!! And once you hear just one song from this psychedelic 3-piece from Seatlle, you’ll see why this is a HUGE score for Chattanooga. They’ll be on tour the next couple months in support of their self-titled full-length which was recently released via Trouble In Mind Records. Download a few tracks from that release below and get to know this highly addictive band… Due to the short time frame in booking, JJ’s is currently looking for bands to open. Contact them HERE if you’re interested in opening for this can’t miss show!
