SUMMARY:8 Year Anniversary Rock Fest w/Bask\, Winds of Neptune\, Glass Chimera
DESCRIPTION:It’s been 8 years\, going on ∞ – and we’re throwing a party to rock the block to celebrate. Three bands – outdoor stage – no cover. Great food and beer specials all day\, and an amazing lineup of rock music kicking off at 5pm.\n\nWe are honored to have our day headlined by North Carolina psychedelic rockers BASK\, who’s new album The Turning was named “Best Rock Album of 2025” at the LIT Music Awards\, and we couldn’t agree more. “Blends heavy Americana\, prog\, stoner rock\, and country for a unique album of the year contender.” – The Metal Pit. “It’s a stunning effort that packs a lot of details without overstretching\, giving listeners plenty of immediate hooks…” metaltrenches.com. “Speckled with spacey atmospherics\, Bask indulge in a psychedelic-yet-focused take on Elder-style stoner metal.” The Progressive Subway.\n\nBask will be supported by two killer Detroit acts – Winds of Neptune and Glass Chimera.\n\nWinds of Neptune released their self-titled debut in late 2025\, described by Outlaws of the Sun blog as “All killer\, no filler.” While the band is new\, the musicians are seasoned rockers including Mike Alonso of the legendary Flogging Molly. Classic hard rock sounds and big hooks make for a fantastic Detroit Rock City addition.\n\nGlass Chimera will kick everything off at 5pm. We’ve been looking to bring this psychedelic trio in for years\, and this is the perfect show for it. Many of our regulars will recognize drummer Aaryn Lindow from his other project Edison Hollow\, a house favorite at Albion Malleable. Their music – in their own words: “South Warren Psychedelic Jazz Punk. Our goal is to constantly subvert and scrutinize the line between harmony and dissonance.”\n\nThank you to our sponsors Albion Insurance Agency and Walk the Beat – Albion. Sound provided by The Cave – Concord.\n\nAnnSee you at The Malleable for a killer ∞ Year bash.
