Hercules and Love Affair @ The Metro Oct. 17

posted by Justin at 11:57 am.

The Brooklyn disco revival act will make a stop in Chicago next month. The show is 18+ and starts at midnight. It is sure to be a night not to disappoint. Deerhoof is playing earlier that evening around 7, then Hercules will start at 12. I’ll be making the trip up to Chicago most likely, unless I have a test the next day.

Signed to DFA, Hercules is headed by DJ Andy Butler of Brooklyn. Other members include Nomi Ruiz, Kim Ann Foxman and Antony Hegarty (lead vocalist in Antony & The Johnsons). Their first single “Blind” dropped back in March, followed by a self-titled full debut a week later. The group has garnered a good amount of critical approval, charting in the top 40 in several countries. “Blind” was also featured in the Fall/Winter 2008/9 Fashion Show for Chanel.

Tickets available soon @ The Metro Chicago
