Band Called Catch at Martyrs – Record Release and 10 Year Anniversary!

Can you believe it’s been 10 years since Band Called Catch played our first show? Man-o-man how time flys… This calls for a party and we’re excited to also be releasing a new record! We’re so honored to share this night with such a great lineup! The night kicks off with an acoustic set from Laura Glyda, followed by our friends Buffalo Rose, then the one and only Todd Kessler. Things keep going with the talented Friends of the Bog, followed by an hour set from Band Called Catch! THEN – STICK AROUND as many of the performers throughout the evening join forces for a closing night sing-along tribute set we’re calling the “kaleidoscope jam!”

ALSO! Past members from BCC will also be joining us on stage like Eli Plasencia, Ian Kelly Davis, Darcy Wood and more TBA! It’s gonna be some crazy good fun.

Tickets are $10 at the door.
