They kept a packed house guessing on Wednesday night.


[ 2/26 ] White Denim kept a packed house guessing at Union Transfer on Wednesday night. The crowd packed in tight against the stage as the band launched into a genre-bending mix of old and new songs, showcasing their technical prowess , inspiring dancing and crowd surfing. The show was marked by frenetic energy, musical leaps of faith, smoke machines and lights that constantly flashed different colors. By the end of it, it felt like we had been on the musical equivalent of a mescaline trip, or a bus ride on a dirt road along the side of a very high mountain. Not necessarily safe, but satisfying.

The Districts, pride of Lititz, PA, brought the energy with a wild opening set.
