Von Shakes (Ireland to Brooklyn Power-Punk) Play Late Show at Knitting Factory on July 20th





Von Shakes (Ireland to Brooklyn Power-Punk) Play Late Show at Knitting Factory on July 20thJust over a year ago, I reviewed Von Shakes debut EP "Almost Nobody" and called the disc "an enjoyable slice of power-punk that is reminiscent of bands like Rooney and Weezer...high-energy, guitar-driven rock with the focal points being Paddy Brazel’s vocals and the band’s slashing guitar lines."

Von Shakes full-length debut, Bohemia, will be out in October and the band describes the album as capturing the sensation and passion of a live show. In a recent interview with Downtown Magazine, Brazil said: "“Bohemia was recorded live, on tape…the artwork is simple, and we’re producing the record onto vinyl...There’s no fiction in our lyrics, we like to believe everything is real.

The show at Knitting Factory is listed as starting at 11:55PM (why not say Midnight??) and tickets are $5.00.
