RainyDawg Radio, The UW Bike Shop and A & E are proud to present
The Moondoggies live on the HUB Lawn Friday April 17th from 2-4pm. Come
enjoy an afternoon of music and bikes as part of the first annual Tune
In, Tune Up event featuring free live music, and free bike maintenance.
Bring your bike and your friends for an afternoon of celebrating music
and cycling with free give aways and activities.

“The
Moondoggies are a four-piece band from Seattle that plays timeless
American music. Warm three-part harmonies, gothic Rhodes organ, and
wanderlust guitar mark a sound rooted in boogie blues and cosmic
country; whip-smart songwriting leads to hook-heavy tunes that bristle
with originality. Led by 22-year-old singer/guitarist Kevin Murphy, the
Moondoggies are intent on artistic balance. They're a serious band with
a silly name. They play music that speaks of travel but is strongly
connected to its place of origin. They're young musicians continuing a
legacy that goes back generations. Songs that unravel over seven
sinuous minutes are somehow catchy and compact” (Hardly Art). Rolling
Stone calls them “a seriously kick-ass band still under the radar,” and
Jonathan Zwickle from The Stranger writes that they are “a teenage Gram
Parsons meets the Band behind the bleachers to smoke a joint:
rollicking midtempo jams, Rhodes electric piano twinkling above group
harmonies and bubbling bass lines”.

Whether you’re into bikes, music, or both this event will surely be a laid back way to spend your Friday afternoon.
