Angel's & Airwaves Rocks Stage AE!

The show opened up with Leesburg, VA indie band My Kid Brother. They opened with Native Tongue which got the crowd going, it’s definitely a song that you can bop around to. They continued with other songs off their self-titled EP as well as unreleased songs. They are definitely a band to keep an eye on, and you should keep an eye out for new music from them too.

The lights went red and the stage began to rumble with music as the crowd cheered as Bad Suns took the stage. They opened with “Daft Pretty Boys” off their 2016 album ``Disappear Here”. Before heading into songs like “Dancing On Quicksand”, “Heartbreaker” and a new song “Heaven Is A Place In My Head” before closing out their set with “Cardiac Arrest”. Although their bass player had to fly home for a family emergency they put on a great set. Their new album “Apocalypse Whenever” is set to release on January 28th and can be pre-ordered now on their website. 

Now it’s the time everyone has been waiting for. Angels & Airwaves opened up their set with “Kiss & Tell” before heading into my personal favorite “Timebomb”, Tom also dedicated “Losing My Mind” to the kids in attendance that night. Before jumping onto “Tunnels” Tom took a moment to tell us about how the song came to be and describe to us all the feelings that he had while writing it. He told the story about losing his father to cancer and the new outlook on life it gave him. The whole story brought tears to my eyes, not because it was sad, but because of the feeling of hope that it gave. They went on to play songs like “Automatic” and “Rite Of Spring” before closing out the night with “Heaven”. Angels and Airwaves just released their new album Lifeforms last month and are on tour until November 7th before heading overseas to play some shows. Definitely check out the new album and catch a show if you can, you wont regret it!
