WYCE Live at Wealthy welcomes HEARTLESS BASTARDS (click for more info)

Tickets are on sale now for WYCE Live at Wealthy Theatre featuring HEARTLESS BASTARDS, Monday, June 22nd at 8pm.

HEARTLESS BASTARDS is an American garage rock band formed in Cincinnati, Ohio in 2003. The band continues boldly pushing their unique brand of rock 'n' roll into new shapes on their brand new fifth album "Restless Ones." Singer Erika Wennerstrom's spellbinding vocals remain front and center, and her one-of-a-kind voice is as primal, cathartic, and indefinable as ever.

Craig Finn - lead singer of heartland rock band The Hold Steady - opens the show.

HEARTLESS BASTARDS with special guest Craig Finn - live at Wealthy Theatre - Monday, June 22nd

Tickets are just $18 for CMC members and available at "Wealthy Theatre dot org" or by phone at 616-459-4788 extension 130.
