Don’t you hate when you get small portions of pink? Luckily, Robbie Furze and Milo Cordell know how to bring it with their act The Big Pink.
The alt-pop band with plenty of charm is coming to the Rock and Roll Hotel on Monday, July 30th, and we’ve got a pair of tickets! So what are you waiting for? Come and get ’em.
Referencing all sorts of sound from a myriad of sources, The Big Pink’s music is a super slick wall of pop with artsy undertones carried by strange electronics, inventive song writing, and clever lyricism. The result has landed them with numerous awards, including the Philip Hall Radar Award for best new act at the NME Shockwave in 2009 and Best New Track with “Dominos” at the NME awards in 2010.
Taking their moniker from the title of The Band’s first album, The Big Pink kicked things off in 2007. Over the years, the band has released five singles and two full length albums with 2009’s A Brief History of Love and 2012’s Future This, the latter of which was produced by the band themselves.
So how can you score tickets to such a sweet gig? It’s simple! In the comments below, give us your favorite band that involves a color.
Because I love weirdo experimentalism so much, I think I’ll have to go with Black Dice.
The winner will be chosen at noon on Monday, July 30th, and must confirm the tickets via email by 3pm for that night’s show.
