Drink Up Buttercup with Dead Man's Clothes, The Class Machine

Monday 05.10.2010, Doors at 7:30 PM, Starts at 8:00 PM, $6, 18+

After being kicked out of their practice space for disturbing the horses, Drink Up Buttercup was soon besieged with praise in Philly publications and catapulted to touring worldwide after the completion of their first full-length album, recorded byBill Moriarty (Dr. Dog, Man Man). Drink Up consists of an ex-opera scholar who refused to exchange sexual favors for solos, a comic book kid who still uses a discman to play music in the car, and two teens who are engaged in an epic battle of side projects for myspace plays. Critics often liken Drink Upâs sound to classic bands like Pink Floyd, The Beach Boys, and Frank Zappa as well as to contemporary bands such as Man Man and Animal Collective. Portland darlings Dead Manâs Clothes join the bill preceded by the SPACE debut of Belfastâs The Class Machine.
