The Penske File feat. Flight 97 + The Advancing Low-Lives

Event Details

Event type: Ages 19+

StS Promotions and The Foxx Lounge present The Penske File with support from Barrie's own Flight 97 and The Advancing Low-Lives of Niagara Falls, ON!

The Penske File have been playing punk rock together for more than half their lives. Which is a quite a feat considering that they are all, just now, collectively entering their mid 20s. Growing up together in suburban Burlington, Ontario, James Hall, Travis Miles & Alexander Standen have been through a lot together. This becomes evident the moment you see them on stage as they feed off each other's every cathartic note with harmonious ease. No strangers to life on the road, the past few years have seen the band tour North America & Europe relentlessly, sharing the stage with such notable acts as Bad Religion, The Hold Steady, Less Than Jake, The Menzingers and many more.

With their lyrics rooted in honest existential exploration, open chords and anthemic hooks, The Penske File feel like an all-inclusive band for misfits, romantics, workers and thinkers alike. On tour, everywhere, forever.

Flight 97 is well-known in the Barrie scene on and off the stage. With vocally-driven, hard-hitting melodies and a combination of many different musical influences, Flight 97 possesses a very original alt-rock style mixed with a pop punk sound. Brimming with emotion, angst and ear-catching lyrics their catchy and relatable songs are somewhat reminiscent of those 90's grunge bands that many grew up listening to.

The Advancing Low-Lives mix punk, grunge, and rock to create a unique sound that is full of emotion, aggressive, yet melodic. The band’s music deals with personal themes, such as alienation, mental illness, and social pressures.

Doors open at 8:00pm / 19+ event / Full menu available until late / Limited tickets available in advance / Some tickets at the door for $15
