Assemblage 23 has evolved since its debut album "Contempt" 10 years ago. "Endure," the one-man project's eighth album remains a work-in-progress, supported by an IndieGoGo campaign. It is set to be released on Aug. 28, meaning it will likely be featured heavily in the Mohawk Place show.
The band's last fully-released album, "Bruise," features stompy anthems such as "The Noise Inside My Head" and "Over and Out" with lyrical genius on tracks like "The Last Mistake," "The Other Side of the Wall" and "Talk Me Down." Although A23's signature sound is still evident, the band took cues from electro-house, post-punk, and the indie electronics scene.
The Buffalo New York “Infringement” Festival is a non-profit-driven, non-hierarchical grassroots endeavor bringing together a broad range of eclectic, independent, experimental, and controversial art of all forms. Taking place in multiple venues in and around Buffalo’s Allentown District, the festival is an annual eleven-day event running from the last weekend of July through the first weekend of August.
Every summer, the streets of Buffalo come alive with scores of events by local and visiting theatre and dance companies, puppeteers, media artists, poets, comics, musicians, cabaret acts, digital designers, and miscellaneous insurrectionists. The annual Buffalo Infringement Festival provides artists and audiences of all backgrounds the chance to come together, take chances, push boundaries, and explore uncharted territory because exciting art can happen anywhere, anytime, without a blockbuster budget (Or any budget at all, for that matter)
