SECRET HISTORY PRESENTS: Bottletree's 3rd Anniversary Show w/ WHITE DENIM/ BRAZOS/ THE GRENADINES!
$1 Pints: Terrapin Brown IPA and Terrapin Rye Pale Ale!!!! When a band's first album is unpredictable enough to invoke comparisons with artists as wildly diverse as hardcore innovators the Minutemen and professorial idiosyncrasy of Randy Newman, then you can reasonably assume its been made by people who care about music. Lots of it. Jazz, punk, funk, country, acid rock, even piano ballads – all these labels have been used, accurately, to describe White Denim. Their second record is more problematic though. It has to sound like them. Fits; the title is both a knowingly bad pun and a reference to the odd tantrum endured in its creation- manages just that. Recorded and produced by the band in their infamous studio/trailer, Fits is more coherent than debut Workout Holiday, yet sacrifices none of its imagination. *We'll have drawings for prizes! Grand prize getting into shows free for one year! Tickets are $10 / Ages 18+ / Doors at 8pm.

THURS. OCT 29:
SPELLS / HEADLIGHTS / POMEGRANATES



Wildlife, Headlights’ poignant third album(Polyvinyl), stems from particularly troubled beginnings. The Champaign, IL quartet who have been touring and recording since 2004, this year found the band as a five piece for the first time with the addition of bassist Nick Sanborn and, temporarily, guitarist John Owen. Group dynamics are a difficult thing to predict, and the recording process proved tumultuous. After a few months, the band scrapped nearly everything. Wildlife is an album haunted by the absence of those left and leaving and the alienation that comes in the wake of loss.
Fittingly, these emotions find expression in Headlights most arresting music yet. Rather than collapsing under the duress, Headlights have survived to surface with a collection of exquisite paeans to the transience of our friendships, lives, and aspirations.

With The Pomegranates and Spells who return to Bottletree for their first show since taking a break to record their new album!

Doors at 8pm / Show at 9pm
