The band Bashford hanging around a garage.
Bashford (clockwise from front): Lucas Peltonen, Erik Fredine, Drew Ferguson.
This is a super summer triple bill that fits Mickey’s like a glove. Jaguar Stevens, out of Denver, plays garage punk like it should be played, fast and loud. Madison’s Bashford has some great grungy hooks and at the best of times may recall Kurt Cobain’s rawest vocals (“Asleep by the Phone,” from 2020's Happathy). And ROBOMAN, also hailing from Madison, pumps out surfy speed riffs like something Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Addams might shimmy to.
