X , the long-time leaders of the L.A. Punk Scene, have
announced more of their summer, live concert tour plans. The
original line-up will perform at the KCRW “Sound in Focus”
Annenberg Live Series on August 8th with Dwight Yoakam.
The concert is free for all ages; those interested in attending need
to RSVP at KCRW.com.
X have also been confirmed to perform at this year’s
Hopscotch festival on September 12th in Raleigh, NC as
well as September 19th at the Kaaboo Festival held at the
Del Mar Fairgrounds in Del Mar, CA.
As was previously
announced, X will bring their 4-Album Show plays to Orange
County in July. In addition, an east-coast / mid-west swing will
bring the quartet to Ridgefield, CT on July 17th before
working their way south to DC and then across to the mid-west with
plays in Cleveland, Detroit and Chicago. X will then head
east again with a show in Boston before wrapping up with 3 shows at
the City Winery in NYC, August 1-3.
Formed
in 1977, X quickly
established themselves as one of the best bands in LA's flourishing
first wave punk scene. Featuring vocalist Exene Cervenka,
vocalist/bassist John Doe, guitarist Billy Zoom, and drummer DJ
Bonebrake, their debut 45 was released on the seminal Dangerhouse
label in 1978. While these songs were later re-recorded for their
second album, the versions on Adult
Books / We're Desperate reveal
X's
raw talent for totally sincere songwriting and stripped-down rock n'
roll. This past April, the band re-issued that first
single, in its original 7-inch format, as limited edition colored
vinyl.
The
original line-up of X
remains John Doe,
Exene Cervenka,
Billy Zoom,
and D.J. Bonebrake.
