[INDIE] Buffalo’s Lemuria are in it for the long haul. Formed in Buffalo in 2004—as the official story goes, the band came into existence inside of the hipster breakfast spot Amy’s Place, likely over a Margie Meal wrap—the hard-working band has toured consistently across the country and even internationally. Lead by guitarist/vocalist Sheena Ozzella, the three-piece have released several albums, but their debut record, Get Better, is what they’ll be focusing on for their latest tour, which celebrates the 10-year anniversary of the record. Get Better was released on Asian Man Records (Less Than Jake and Alkaline Trio are among the label’s alumni) and recorded in Lockport at Watchmen Studios in 2008. Though their emo-tinged indie rock music has brought them around the world, there’s nothing like playing their hometown, drummer Alex Kearns told The Public in an interview in 2015. “It’s different because we know everyone in the crowd. It’s like a little reunion,” he said. If you want to be a part of the next reunion, check out Lemuria when they return to Mohawk Place as part of their Get Better 10 Year Anniversary Tour on Friday, February 10 at Mohawk Place. Support from Mikey Erg and Cayetana.
