Our main events from The Ritter House were a mix of far & near, but both bringing in the punk vibe; The Smarthearts (1st Vid, PA) & Heckdang (2nd Vid, CLT). Hailing from Philadelphia, The Smarthearts crack in with a power-punk sound, while delivering a few good hooks with the ballads. While the band themselves are new, each member comes from a different outfit, including Sheer Mag, Graveturner, & The Guests, marking each piece a veteran in their own right. Out on their 2nd tour this year, SH is showing out with their 2018 debut album "On The Line". If you're in the Asheville area, check them out at Static-Age Records tonight at 9! Song: Only A Name Album: On The Line Last, but certainly not least, we welcome back CLT mainstays Heckdang, fresh off of their East Coast tour. "Never Left Home", the band's most recent EP, bares a certain heaviness with each track, expressed with great emotion through vocalist/bass Madga Criswell & amped up on a different main instrumental, like drum-heavy "Mushrooms" or the soft airiness of the guitar in "Presbyterian". Heckdang will next be at The Milestone on July 25, so come on out & see their crafted works for yourselves! Song: Presbyterian Album: Never Left Home Together with all our bands Sunday, as well as Nasty Duty & Who Knows Records, the turnout was pretty immense & packed out small venue. Thank to all that showed up to turn out, as well to our artists for playing & our sponsors for their passion in supporting indie musicians! Can't wait for the next show out here!! #thesmarthearts #thesmartheartsmusic #philadelphiamusicscene #heckdang #charlottemusic #charlottemusicscene #localmusic #supportyourlocalartists #supportindependentartists #whoknowsrecords #nastyduty #reportingfrom20xx #rf20xx (at Charlotte, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz8qbX0pJZT/?igshid=1hqqvmevjot8t
