The Safes, November 1 at Valley Bar
The Father Figures are playing at Valley Bar Wednesday, Nov. 1st. Why would you go, you ask? It’s our last show of the year, we’re releasing the CD version of our (to date) vinyl only “Heavy Lifting” LP, AND we’re bringing out one of Chicago’s best bands, The Safes (AND the Rebel Set)! Oh, and the CD will be much cheaper than downloading it. It would mean a lot to us if you could come out and hang with us for a bit, we promise to wrap the show up early (10:30) and get you home in bed just a little later than normal.

On April 14th at the Valley Bar in Downtown Phoenix we are presenting the release of Heavy Lifting on Slope Records. It’s been a long time coming. We think you will dig it.
