J. Roddy Walston is a force of nature. If his hits like Heavy Bells are a war cry, then the deep cuts like Boys Can Never Tell are a tactical cosmic retreat. For some, his music is a form of religion, psychedelic in its intensity, transformative in its grip on the body, shaking loose something primal that’s been buried too long. It’s not about thinking. It’s about moving, feeling, surrendering. His influences are a riot of contradictons: KurtCobain’s fury, Nilsson’s fractured sweetness, Zeppelin’s power, and somewhere in there a perverted nod to William Onyeabor’s lonely calculator funk. Critcs try to box him in, but Walston can’t be contained—he does chaos, and his live shows do damage, but fortunately his songs can pay the tab. Catch him and his band before he burns it all down again.______

Proceeds from this concert will benefit the Bartko Foundation.  The foundation is based in Pittsburgh and raises money for single mothers in need.  For more information on the mission and work of the foundation please go to: https://www.bartkofoundation.org/index.php
