Come celebrate World Hamster Day at 10 Forward with a fun punk, chiptune, and noise extravaganza! Local superstar daughter & dad punk band ROCKING PUPPIES will be joined by BORING MAN's glitchy loopy noise music & soundscapes, SAM MULLIGAN's gameboy pizza-flavored chiptune rock experience, SPOOKAROUND's basement fun punk vibes, and Easthampton's WIRE PILE (remember the Hole cover band from CoverChella? They were awesome - same folks!), rounding out this eclectic line-up. Are we doing anything to specifically celebrate hamsters? Technically, no, but this is going to be a wild and eclectic show, which will surely make the hamsters proud.

ROCKING PUPPIES

The  Rocking Puppies are formidable father-and-daughter punk duo hailing from Western Massachusetts. The band is fronted by 8 year old Pema Crow, joined on guitar by her aging skate punk dad (Michael). But don't let their youthful exuberance fool you; this duo brings a raw and raucous sound that would make even the most seasoned punks nod in approval

BORING MAN

Boring man hails from sister towns Greenfield and Great Falls and is the creation of the only member in the band, nik “summer beard” Perry. Soundscapes are created using 90% handmade synthesizers and gear and is often times dance-y and destroy-ey.  Come get lost in it all or just get bored.
