    Bright Box Theater, Winchester, VA  - Burning Dirty Band
15 N Loudoun St  The Burning Dirty Band consider this more a celebration than just a show, and will be playing several tracks off their most recent album, Goodbye Dominion. "Goodbye Dominion is the defining Burning Dirty Band album. Smartly arranged, blues-tinged indie rock is dappled with psychedelic shimmers, raw lo-fi soul, and simmering, spacious anthemic power. Longtime BDB producer Steve West (Pavement; Silver Jews; Marble Valley) again lends his talents behind the boards. Fans of Spoon, Wilco, David Bowie, The Band, and The Beatles will find plenty to like. This is music of loss, recovery, doubt, daydreams, hard realities, and the uneasy compromises of living in a cluttered world." $12 ADV | $15 DOOR
