SakeOne Summer Concert Series featuring The Slants - SakeOne
Please join us from 6pm to 8pm for the Slant's smooth harmonies, infectious melodies and anthemic choruses. It's been said that everything that could be done in music has been done already; new artists are inherently boring, with nothing that is original or creative to offer. But those people hadn't heard The Slants (yet), a band who has everyone screaming for some "Chinatown Dance Rock." |
