FRED ARMISEN TAKES HIS HOMETOWN HEROES TO HOMETOWNS IN THE NORTHWEST

posted June 30th, 2017

What do the greatest musical innovators of the 20th century, such as The Bjelland Brothers, The Blue Jean Committee, and Crisis of Conformity all have in common? Fred Armisen! A true renaissance man, Fred Armisen’s deep supply of locally-pressed records has presented undersung heroes from the history of music in his series Hometown Heroes. Without Fred, who else could bring you songs from the smooth and sensual yacht rock leaning The Blue Jean Committee or a band of young punks who Henry Rollins remarked in passing as “the weakest "band" of posers to play with Black Flag on the '83 tour” !?

Fred is taking these tunes on the road next week with stops in Montana, Idaho and Washington state! A mix of stand up and musical performances, these live shows are the place to be this summer!

July 5th at The Pub Station in Billings, MT
