Please note: Ben London has been one of my very favorite songwriters for a long time, going back through his days in the bands Alcohol Funnycar and Sanford Arms. The guy is an underappreciated gem in the Seattle music scene, and sharing this bill with him will be both a pleasure and an honor.

EXPLONE is a Seattle-based rock band that refuses to acknowledge the irrelevancy of electric guitar in modern music. We won't stop believing. We still love Cheap Trick, Queen, Hüsker Dü, Nada Surf and the Pixies. Conservative Christians can have our Judas Priest records when they pry them from our cold, dead fingers.
