DOUBLE DAGGER

IMPERIAL CHINA

HOLY GHOST PARTY

$10 Backstage / Doors at 8:00

Double Dagger does not make "background music." The Baltimore trio's songs are meant to be experienced, rather than just listened to – either at one of their intense performances or with the volume turned up loud enough to feel it in your gut. Double Dagger embodies the contradictions of the fair–yet–blighted city they call home – visceral, raw, cacophonously loud, yet with unexpected moments of clarity, humor, and revelation. Live, Double Dagger's stripped–down musical line–up, consisting solely of bass, drums, and vocals, channels a dynamic energy that often has the three musicians, and the audience, dripping with sweat by the second song.
