LAUREN NAPIER: CONTENT TO DO THEIR THING >>>
Hailing from the back roads of Vermont, the River City Rebels â€" a namesake born from the town of White River Junction â€" is a band that evades genres, not to mention any other form of concrete scene. Making their way across the country and playing a plethora of settings â€" from bars to house parties and the occasional conventional venue â€" the band has booked over a month’s worth of shows in the spirit of D.I.Y. Dan O’Day, the lead singer of River City Rebels, says, “The tour has been amazing and very satisfying.†While spouting off influences, Dan lists such names as Bruce Springsteen, the Clash, Van Morrison, and the celebrity comedian Andrew Dice Clay. Put those artists in a blender and you might just come up with the River City Rebels. In a music scene that is “a bit stale,†according to O’Day, this rebellious pack of musicians is content to “just do (their) own thing.†When the River City Rebels share the stage with Avenue Rose and The Greatest Hits tonight at Hell’s Kitchen, wear your sunglasses to shield your eyes from the brilliance.
