About This Event
One of the most celebrated bands to come out of the Los Angeles Paisley Underground scene of the 80s, the Dream Syndicate adored the intricate wordplay and edgy energy of Highway 61 Revisited era Bob Dylan, as well as the noisy guitars and bracing darkness of the Velvet Underground.
