Pop/Rock Band, And The Kids, Coming to The Garage at BTG

Berkshire Theatre Group presents celebrated indie rock/pop band, And The Kids at The Garage on Saturday, September 17 at 8pm.

Contact the Colonial Ticket Office at 111 South Street, Pittsfield by calling 413-997-4444, or online at www.berkshiretheatregroup.org Ticket Offices are open Monday-Friday 10am-5pm, Saturdays 10am-2pm or on any performance day from 10am until curtain.

Recently called one of "the Western Mass. indie scene's brightest creative lights" by Pitchfork, Northampton, Massachusetts' And The Kids recently released their debut full-length album, Turn to Each Other (Signature Sounds). Turn to Each Other is more than an album title: it's a statement of fact for the band, whose bond-as musicians, friends and creative foils-is as tight as they come. The album features 11 tracks full of ringing guitars from Hannah Mohan, knotty rhythms from drummer Rebecca Lasaponaro and bold accents from synthesizers and percussion by Megan Miller. Together, they create "apocalyptic pop," a dizzying stop-start ride with lush, intricate soundscapes that frame Mohan's lively lead vocals. Taliana Katz made her debut as And The Kids' bassist at their NPR Tiny Desk Concert, and continues to carry the energy of the album to the stage.
