Marco Argiro (Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg, The Killing Floor, Le Mood) Plays Record Release Show at Bowery Electric on Wed., Sept. 25th

With a nod to his great influences such as The Beatles (Revolver-era), Tom Petty, The Kinks, Elliot Smith, and The Traveling Wilburys, Marco Argiro’s LOVE calls to mind a psychedelic era of rock infused with harmonies reminiscent of the West Coast sounds of the 70s. The album represents love in all variations: young love, faltering love, and love’s evolution over time. The title track and first single, “Love,” takes a simple and classic message - “All you need is love” - and reinterprets it for a new generation. LOVE is Marco's second disc released under his own name and it comes out Sept. 24th on Argiro's Outright Rock Records label.

Argiro has made a name for himself internationally in the ultra melodic power-pop band Le Mood, as well as the transatlantic anthemic rock group The Killing Floor. “Ever the quintessential frontman,” (The Broward Palm Beach New Times), Argiro caught the eye and ear of Marky Ramone in 2010. Ramone tapped Argiro to take over as lead vocalist, filling in for the ailing Michale Graves (The Misfits) during the kickoff of Marky Ramone’s Blitzkrieg European tour. For Argiro, a lifelong Ramones fan, it was a dream come true. The experience inspired LOVE’s closing track, "Will You Remember Poison Heart?"



For the show at Bowery Electric, doors are at 7PM (Happy Hour is until 8PM) and Marco goes on around 9:30PM. Tickets are $8 and the other bands on the bill are Arc Waves, Diane Gentile and Greg Humphreys. Attendees will receive a free copy of LOVE on compact disc with paid entry.
