Old Rock House hosting SXSW artists

There's this great thing in March called South By Southwest... Old Rock House is excited to have some of those artists play here as they travel to SXSW. We have already annouced Chapel Club on 3/22, one of the SXSW artists to play ORH & here are two more! So if you can't make it to SXSW to check out great new music, stop by Old Rock House in March, it will be much cheaper than driving to Texas!


Class Actress & Millionyoung
Thursday, March 24
Doors 7pm Show 8pm
$8 adv $10 dos
All Ages $2 Minor Surcharge
Tickets On-Sale 1/19 @ 5pm

Class Actress began in Elizabeth Harper's bedroom along with producer/psychoanalyst Mark Richardson and some choice vintage synths. The songs quickly grew legs, strutted out of the Greenpoint apartment and now can be seen lighting up all over dark stages. The band pulls from a variety of styles, ranging from the 80's synth pop of Depeche Mode and New Order, the vivaciousness and sexuality of early Madonna, and the bubbly heartbreak of Mazzy Star.

Mike Diaz, Florida's own electronic genius, or as we like to know him by his hypnagogic pop project of MillionYoung has found his niche in providing music lovers with a soundtrack to reminisce their nostalgic memories with his dreamy washes of synth and seductively rueful computer melodies accompanied by electric and acoustic guitar.
