Black Lips will perform on the Strelka

On August 31, the Strelka Moscow Bar will host the DAY No7 new music festival, whose headliner will be the American punk rock group Black Lips.

The festival will summarize the results of the Stage Battle contest, organized by the online project of Rolling Stone - Studio No7 . The purpose of the competition is to support talented independent musicians, this year it is held in two directions - rock and electronic music.

In addition to the participants of the competition on the Strelka stage, Black Lips will perform.

The group was formed in 1999 by guitarist Cole Aleksander and Basist Jared Suilly from Renegades , as well as guitarist Ben Eberbo from Reruns . Later, the drummer Joe Bradley joined them.

Black Lips immediately declared scandalous behavior on the stage - the musicians undressed, launched fireworks, set fire to the guitars. Over time, they became more restrained, which, however, did not affect the popularity of the group.

On the account of Black Lips , seven studio albums. The last of them, “Underneath The Rainbow” , recorded together with the drummer of The Black Keys Patrick Kerni, was released in the spring of 2014.
