Record Release Show

Performance Space

Now signed to eternally cool indie label Matador, Columbus’s swiftly rising DIY rock trio Times New Viking celebrate the release of a new album, Rip It Off, supported by three great groups of their friends.

Expect more of Times New Viking’s wickedly bent melodies and deliciously dirty buzz to underscore “Teen Drama,” “The Early 80s,” the feisty intralabel throwdown track “Times New Viking vs. Yo La Tengo,” and other tunes the lo-fi pop deconstructivists unveil from their new release. More Matador shenanigans are on display with the guitar-driven neo-garage sound of the Ponys from Chicago. Columbus pals the Feelers get it all going and then some.

Limited seating available on a first come, first served basis.
