THE CITIZENS BAND * October 24-27th @ Abrons Arts Center
New York City’s beloved musical troupe, The Citizens Band, is thrilled to return with their newest live show October 24-27th at Abrons Arts Center in New York City. Special guests include actress Julia Stiles, singer-musician Joe Sumner, actress Alia Shawkat and singer Ren Harvieu, who will be joining the roster of extraordinarily talented performers that already includes Karen Elson, Angela McCluskey, Ian Buchanan, Sarah Sophie Flicker, Rain Phoenix and more. Audiences are in store for four straight nights of dazzling politically conscious performances, just in time for the upcoming presidential election.  The shows are co-sponsored by Press Here Productions and MoveOn.org<http://front.moveon.org/> , a political action committee powered by 7 million progressive Americans. The Citizens Band just released their new album Grab A Root and Growl via Press Here Records. It is an inspiring anti-apathy, pro-voting call-to-action, reminding us all that every vote counts in our great democracy. A portion of the album profits are being donated to The National Association of Free and Charitable Clinics.

SAINT ETIENNE * Friday, October 26th @ Webster Hall - Doors at 7pm
Saint Etienne will be performing at Webster Hall on Friday, October 26th in support of their critically acclaimed new album Words and Music by Saint Etienne.  It has been several years since Sarah Cracknell, Bob Stanley, and Pete Wiggs last toured in the US. Wiggs says, “We haven’t been Stateside for five years or so - too long, and we’re itching to bring you our party friendly set - featuring lots of Words and Music… interspersed with a liberal assortment of yer classics.” Limited edition copies of Words and Music, will be available for sale exclusively at their US shows, which includes 8 unreleased tracks. PRESS HERE<http://youtu.be/3MQmsHPwLvU> to watch the video for Saint Etienne’s latest single, “I’ve Got Your Music”.

“Words and Music by Saint Etienne, is a sterling affirmation that relating pop music to your life doesn't have to grow more difficult as you get older...The execution is mostly impeccable, with crystal-clear yet memorably idiosyncratic lyrics, and slick electro-pop production.” (7.8 – Pitchfork)
