Orange County product Monique Powell--she of Save Ferris fame, natch--has a new project called The Mojo Wire, and they're opening up tonight for The Growlers at Detroit Bar. It's a lot more hard rocky than the early No Doubt-esque bouncy ska of Save Ferris, which is kinda disorienting; but given that bouncy ska is a pretty hard sell in the year 2008, it's probably the right move.
I don't work in the marketing department at DiPiazza's Restaurant & Lounge, but maybe I should. I just took a gander at their April schedule and they've got some great stuff lined up.
Wednesday is Adam's Dagger, a Long Beach band that just had a streaming song on Punknews.
Friday is Fishbone. 'nuff said.
April 10 is Mike Watt the Missingmen, Mojo Wire (featuring Monique Powell, formerly of Save Ferris) and the Jack Brewer Reunion Band (featuring members of Saccharine Trust)
