25 Years of Norton Records

There really isn’t much else to say in this post other than we gotta find a way to sneak out of Nashville for a minute in November to hit up the Norton Records 25th Anniversary All Star Spectacular. Check out the lineup that’s posted after the click down there and you’ll probably agree. Actually, before clicking that, prepare yourself for a lineup that consists of pretty much every badass garage or soul or rock and roll band that you never get chances to see. And you get to see them all over the span of four days from November 10th to the 13th in New York at the Bell House. Seriously, shit is going to be crazy. You can get four-day tickets here or get other ticket info here. Ain’t no party like a Norton Records party because a Norton Records party is fucking unbelievable.
