In late February, I flew out to icy Detroit with Dave Brown to be wined and dined by Ford Motor Company.  On our second night in the motor city, our group was escorted to The Majestic for an all-you-can-eat buffet of food, beer and bowling.  Throughout our first game, there was a band sound checking on a stage built over the middle four lanes of the alley.  By the time we were a couple pitchers deep, the lights were hit, and said band grabbed all of our attention real quick.

Fast forward six months and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. is on every major music blog in the country (Pitchfork, Stereogum, Daytrotter).  Luckily we had the inside track, and teamed up with Future Sounds and Indigenous to book thier first west coast tour, heading for San Diego this fall.  Saturday, September 11th Dale Jr. Jr. will hit Bar Pink with Jamuel Saxon for The Rumble.  Check out their video for "Nothing But Our Love" below, and grab their debut EP here.
