[PUNK] Given their 1995 “hit,” “Disconnected,” which broke through to some mainstream airplay thanks to being included on the soundtracks for Tank Girl and National Lampoon’s Senior Trip, Face to Face are often thought of as being early purveyors of punk-pop. But really, that’s not fair. It might seem like splitting hairs to some, but Face to Face is really more about 1990’s skater punk (more in the tradition of The Offspring, NOFX, Pennywise, etc), which could be considered a punk-pop precursor, but retains more of the edgy punch that initially defined the genre. After a hiatus from 2004-2008, Face to Face returned to regular touring and have since released three new albums, the most recent being 2016’s Protection on Fat Wreck Chords. There have been lineup changes along the way, but Trevor Keith is still in front, with Scott Shiflett on bass, Dennis Hill on guitar and Danny Thompson on drums. Help them christen the Rec Room on Monday, September 17, with this special 16+ acoustic gig.
