Bern & the Brights / Kagero Tour (NYC, CT, ME) April 14-17

Montclair's Bern & The Brights and Brooklyn's Kagero are hitting the road for a 3-day tour from April 15-17. The tour features the sultry, romantic nerd-rock from Bern & the Brights and the Japanese gypsy rock of Kagero. Together the two are bound to delight. Although slightly different sounds, both acts feature beautiful violin.

The tour for Bern & the Brights comes after opening for Rhett Miller at Mexicali Live in Teaneck, being the feature performer for 101.9 RXP's "Pull the Plug" showcase, and being an Aquarian Weekly 2010 'On the Verge' band. The 5-piece who frequently perform in NJ and NYC weekly, gathering a fan-base known as 'The Lights Brigade' will take their live show to Connecticut and Maine.

Kagero pulls in influences and rhythms from Asia, the Middle east, South America, and eastern Europe for a self-described "Japanese gypsy rock" sound that is infused with a folk edge, and dance sensibility. This trio has an interesting musicianship that you simply have to hear. 

Bern & the Brights kick it off solo on April 14 with a show at The Red Lion in NYC at 9pm.
