Hitchcock is one of the longest-lasting art rock forefathers managing to remain just on the edge of household name status. After years with The Soft Boys, decades of solo work, oodles of tours, the occasional acting gig, a couple of books of poetry and reunions with friends like Elvis Costello and Nick Lowe, Hitchcock is traveling again in support of his upcoming Goodnight Oslo. This record finds him in collaboration once again with the Venus 3 (that's Peter Buck, Scott McCaughey & Bill Rieflin). The album is available to stream at Reverb Nation, and features the song "Up to Our Nex," from Jonathan Demme's feature film Rachel Getting Married. Watch a live performance of "Up to Our Nex" here.
Hitchcock will be joined by local pub rock throwbacks (think Rockpile and Westerberg) Leatherbag, who we had the honor of hosting at our Fun Fest edition of Local Music Is Sexy last year. Follow the jump to watch highlights from that performance and get to Antone's early for their set.
