Next show: New York City, Sat 20 Feb
natural music ensemble There comes a point in every lifer band’s arc where the mirage evaporates. You look around, count the years, look at your bank account, and realize the economic vice grip isn’t letting up. Your country is getting dumber, meaner, and louder by the week. You’ve played every stage from punk houses in Detroit to the hallowed Hollywood Bowl. You’ve buried parents, watched friends fade out, and taken on the heavy, terrifying mantle of starting families of your own. You realize you’re the next generation now, and the choices you make carry real weight. If you’re Bonny Doon, you don’t dwell on misfortune and hardship. Instead, you get together twice a week, turn up the amps, and make the most refined, red-blooded record of your lives. Forever Green is the sound of a band shedding every last bit of self-consciousness to embrace exactly who they are— a veteran collective arriving at a new plateau through hard-earned conviction and straightforward delivery.
