The Loners Album Release Party for “Revolution!”

March, 04, 2009

Revolution, the 2nd album by The Loners, will be released this Friday, March 6th, at Tir Na Nog.  It’s been quite a ride since 2001, when The Loners released their first record.  Revolution is a product of tumultuous times and the rebirth that can come from it.  The Dirty Little Heaters and Pinche Gringo are solid support, to say the least.  Trent Bowles is MCing this event, and he’s hilarious.  Its win-win-win all the way.  The Loners are ready to throw down and celebrate their vinyl and digital download release.  Mark this on your “to do” list for First Friday.  Jump in for flier and album review.
