Golden Belt is hosting local favorites Bombadil on Saturday, July 11, in a multifaceted listening party that celebrates the band's third and upcoming album, Tarpits and Canyonland.
The group worked with the creators of IdiotBooks to design special artwork to go along with the album. The pieces will be on display at the party. From the press release:
The celebration will feature an exhibition of 19 illustrations from the project: five illustrations that make up the fable housed in the disc's packaging, plus one illustration to represent each song on the album. You are sure to fall in love with these ingenious and notoriously funny creations as quickly as the band did. The (very) limited edition prints will be available for sale ($25-50 cash or check) for those interested.
Although Bombadil will not be performing (bassist Daniel Michalak has severe tendonitis), The Tender Fruit, Luego and the Scene of the Crime Rovers are the musical guests of the evening.
The party kicks off at 7 p.m. and will continue to 10 p.m. Admission is free, and the event is BYOB. If you're in the Durham area this summer and wanting to relive some Coffeehouse moments, this is an event worth checking out.
