Bleachers Celebrate New Record With Triumphant and Intimate Stone Pony Show.<\/p>\n
\u00a0New Jersey is a hub for many influential musicians and bands that have gone on to become widely acclaimed. Few arguably have struck a chord quite like singer-songwriter and producer Jack Antonoff. He started his career as a member of the band Fun. before launching his solo project Bleachers. They have gone on to headline several tours and hold an annual festival at the Stone Pony known as Shadow of The City. This year, mother nature had other plans as Shadow of The City which was originally scheduled for Memorial Day weekend got rained out. However that didn\u2019t stop Antonoff and company from celebrating the release of the latest Bleachers album,\u00a0Everyone For Ten Minutes\u00a0in style.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Antonoff decided to throw a free impromptu release party show inside the Stone Pony and with the place filled wall to wall, he delivered arguably one of the most exhilarating and passionate performances of his career. It really showcased why Bleachers has become one of the most enduring acts to come out of New Jersey!<\/p>\n
The setlist was a strong mix of recent standouts from the latest record as well as staples of their catalog such as \u201c I Wanna Get Better,\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u201cStop Making This Hurt,\u201d\u00a0\u00a0and \u201cRollercoaster,\u201d all of which sounded just as lively as they ever have. The set also benefitted from some well-timed special guests including Antonoff\u2019s own father during \u201cHow Dare You Want More,\u201d\u00a0\u00a0Annie DiRusso for a duet of \u201cMerry Christmas, Please Don\u2019t Call,\u201d and Chris Conley of Saves The Day on \u201cTiny Moves.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0These appearances were very much welcome but this set was a true testament to Antonoff\u2019s dedication to his fans. That sincerity shined through in every aspect of the performance from start to finish. While Antonoff and his band have played Jersey countless times this particular set saw them leaving it all out there. The sheer joy in the room was truly captivating to experience!\u00a0<\/p>\n
There are artists who put on shows and those who deliver experiences and bring people together, for Bleachers their mission statement has always been the latter. Witnessing them take the inside of the Stone Pony by storm was truly an experience we won\u2019t soon forget. If there\u2019s anything to remember Bleachers for, it\u2019ll be their ability to truly resonate with audiences in the most organic way possible.<\/p>\n
Bleachers will be at Shadow of The City on August 28th at the Stone Pony Summerstage. Everybody For Ten Minutes is available now on all streaming platforms!\u00a0<\/p>\n
