The Cider House presents 1220 & The Cornbred Blues Band
Friday, July 17
@ The Valarium

9:00 PM Doors

1220 bring echos of the seventies style of rock, but with a good dose of their own swaggering style. With the rock-solid rhythm section of Bill Van Vleet and Michael Cover anchoring the twin guitar attack of Nick Kurtz and Ricky Dover, Jr. this band has the power to back up vocalist Jacob Gibson's soaring vocal lines. Take the unpredictability of early Aerosmith, and mix a little bit of Led Zeppelin and T. Rex, and add a little Motley spice, and you've got a band that sounds a bit like 1220.

They say: "The Cornbred Blues Band's psychedelic hillbilly sound is derived from small-town experience in Morristown. Jon Worley lends his family history and adversity to this remorseful yet upbeat mix of horn-driven powerbilly music. The band draws its name from being cornfed and just a little inbred."

All Ages.
$6 Door/$8 for under 21
