PICTURE THIS: Ages and Ages + Chris Pureka @ the Bootleg Theater, LA 8/26/2016
I don’t know what it is, but there’s a lot of great bands out of Portland right now touring through Los Angeles. Last night it was Ages & Ages and Chris Pureka at the Bootleg Theater.
Chris and her band played a stunning set of melancholy country-tinged songs mostly from Back in the Ring, released in April.
Then Ages and Ages cheered everyone back up with their catchy harmonies. For an album release tour, they played a lot of songs off the previous two records, but no one was complaining. They ended the show playing “No Nostalgia,” the first song they wrote together, unplugged amongst the audience. Something to Ruin is out now.
