At the end of July, fellow Jersey bands the Gaslight Anthem (The ’59 Sound, American Slang) and the Bouncing Souls (Maniacal Laughter, Ghosts on the Boardwalk) played a hot show on Pier 26 in Hudson River Park to a bevy of fans shouting along with every word and forming a wicked mosh pit. On September 30 at the Music Hall of Williamsburg, Gaslight Anthem leader Brian Fallon will be joining longtime punks the Bouncing Souls for the monthly edition of the Red Bull Sound Select series, which Fallon curated in conjunction with Brooklyn Vegan. The main event is Fallon playing a set with the Bouncing Souls; don’t be surprised if they tear through a raucous version of “East Coast! Fuck You!” Opening up will be a pair of Brooklyn groups, garage-popsters Nude Beach and Red Bull Sound Select band Aye Nako, who describe themselves as “four weirdos trying to find their confidence / sexuality / harmony / pay day,” specializing in such genres as “homopop, queercore, punk, and non-college rock.” You can stream Aye Nako’s strong debut, Unleash Yourself, here. Tickets are a mere three bucks and are available only at the door the night of the show.
