Second Crush’s most recent CD, “Street Corner of Fear”, features ten blistering
tracks of Detroit rock and roll.
The disc continues to receive massive airplay on TV shows on MTV, VH1,
Spike TV, A&E and more. In fact, MTV’s “Road Rules” and USA Network’s “Dr.
Stevo” both licensed “Street Corner of Fear” in its entirety. During the
band’s illustrious career they have toured the world, from headlining festivals
in Munich and Hamburg, Mexico, and Amsterdam, to rocking high profile showcases
at legendary venues including The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, SXSW (Austin),
The Viper Room (Los Angeles) and the now defunct CBGB’s (NYC).
Relative
newcomers Mound Road Engine’s fierce female-fronted rock has already made a
huge impression on the Detroit Music Scene. Two of their songs are featured prominently in the upcoming
feature movie release “Heavy Mental,” (Silver Bullet Pictures) premiering in
May 2009, and the band will also be spotlighted on the new cult TV show
“Detroit Pillow Fight” to broadcast this summer.
Adding
to the night’s festivities will be giveaways by both On the Rocks Detroit and
the Hard Rock Café - who will be giving away two $25 gift certificates and
other goodies to attendees that night.
Additionally, the Hard Rock Café will also validate parking cards for
FREE Parking for those who park at the Farmer Garage (adjacent to the Compuware
Building).
Don’t
miss a great night of music for the Detroit Opera House at Detroit’s Hard Rock
Café!
