First Listen | In The Whale "Eric"

One of our favorite band of misfits In The Whale were gracious enough to let us preview their new 7 Inch album and to make things better we want to share it with you before anybody else. To sweeten things up a bit we have the last two pairs of "Golden Tickets" to their sold out album release show coming up Friday at Larimer Lounge. Now we could go on Stub Hub and scalp these tickets and buy new fancy camera equipment or the new "Hug Me" Elmo if we wanted, but since it's the holidays we want to give them away. We will be announcing a contest on Wednesday for these sought after tickets of goodness. Did we mention these are the last two pairs of tickets in existence?

After a 2013 that saw the band play Red Rocks, perform at festivals like SXSW and Treefort and tour the region, In the Whale unleashes Eric on the masses.

To celebrate the release of the band’s new 7” Eric, the band plans to hit the road in a couple weeks to introduce the south to one of the mile high’s best kept secrets.  The band will close the year opening for Reverend Horton Heat at the Gothic on 12/30/13.
