Ex Hex is a power trio from Washington DC featuring Mary Timony (Wild Flag, Helium, Autoclave), Laura Harris and Betsy Wright. In Mary’s words: “Ex Hex are what your older brother’s friends listened to. “Roxy Roller” and “Virginia Plain” rumbling from the Kenwood in the basement. Drums, bass, guitar, P90s, searing leads – this is unapologetic rock n’ roll spat out in the discipline’s mother tongue.” Their debut album “Rips” on Merge Records, was recorded by Mitch Easter (Let’s Active) and contains 12 songs about underdogs, guys stealing your wallet, schoolyard brawls and getting bent. Noise-pop quartet Speedy Ortiz (Northampton, Massachusetts) have toured with Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks who share a similar penchant for twisted riffage and witty wordplay. Their latest album “Major Arcana” was named Best New Music by Pitchfork. Local faves Spider & the Webs (w/ Tobi Vail of Bikini Kill) kick off the night with their stripped-down, melodic punk.
