We brought Summer to Boston early this year
Summer Cult just had a lovely three day stay away from the compound. We played three very fun, very different shows in Boston.
Friday the 13th we played at The Plough And Stars, a great little spot in Cambridge, with Jim Heffernan, Fashion Snake, and Hands and Knees. It was packed with nice people and everyone sounded great. We even had quite a few Syracuse friends there to rock out with us.
Saturday, we saw some sights then trucked on over to Allston for a punk rock house show at the Secret House Of Pancakes. It was hot, sweaty, loud, and full of kids who were really into the music. There was great music from Josh and Sam, S.L.F.M., The Taxidermists, Greylock, and Fort! The Band. Before the last note from the last band died,the police showed up... through the 2nd story kitchen window. And as they did, they announced, "The cops are coming through the kitchen window! If you're underage, you're gonna wanna go. We are not joking. You've managed to INTENSELY piss off your neighbors." But they actually seemed pretty nice about the whole thing. "Oh! That's the beer guy. HE'S gonna fuck you ova." They said that, too. No clue what the context was but it's all really fun to say in their thick Bostonian accents.
Sunday morning was less sweaty but just as much fun. We played a brunch party with Spirit Family Reunion, put on by New Music Collaborative, Music Savage and Brewery Sessions. It was all filmed (and streamed online) by Kitchen Sessions. We filled up on yummy breakfast foods, drank many mimosas (and beers and screwdrivers and vodka tonics...) and belted out our songs to nearly a hundred people on a beautiful, sunny day. Here's a few pictures that showed up on twitter:

The entire weekend was fantastic. We met so many nice people and had too much fun. Thanks to everyone who helped us out making it the best trip ever.

touch me at a house party
Our next show is this upcoming Tuesday. It's a house show in Syracuse (Email summercult@gmail.com for details) and it's with two amazing bands called Cat Names and Little Spoon. I suggest looking into both of them.
and, while you're looking at things, look at this: A new video of us on youtube playing a new song called "Touch Me"
