Shonen Knife @ The Flycatcher  (Indie Rock)
21+  

Shonen Knife, Osaka Japan's legendary queens of indie sunshine, are back with a brand new album for 2014.
 
Their newest release, "Overdrive", is a tip of the hat to 70's Hard Rock, and a continuation of Shonen Knife's journey into the musings of food, fantasy and daily life in the Far Eastern metropolis of Osaka we've come to know and love.
 
"Overdrive" features 10 new songs penned by founding member and principal songwriter Naoko who continues to grow the 30 plus year legacy of Japan's most recognizable name in indie rock. The band is rounded out with 2 songs sung by bassist Ritsuko and drummer Emi, a lineup consistently rocking since 2010.
 
Channeling the musical traditions of 70's Metal Icons like Thin Lizzy, Deep Purple, Bad Company, Kiss and Black Sabbath, Naoko's passion for the hard rock genre is translated through her constant pop culture filter known as Shonen Knife.
