Class M Planets (thebrotheregg)




Sunday, December 13th
8pm No Cover
Fort George Brewery
1483 Duane St.-Astoria


Class M Planets is a stripped down acoustic version of Portland's, thebrotheregg, an under-the-radar, eclectic-minded, "outpop" rock group with a greater emphasis on hearing the words of the songs and with general subtlety of acoustic music and casio keyboards in general. The big band thebrotheregg has called Portland home for some 10+ years and has performed sporadically throughout the years, sharing the stage with such greats as The Decemberists, Helio Sequence, June of 44, the Handsome Family, and Black Heart Procession to name a few. As a consequence, Class M Planets is a pure extraction of the folkier and popier elements of thebrotheregg, delivered with clear and audible vocals and charm.

thebrotheregg project is a continuous inquiry into sound and emotional goo which appeals frantically to sources both earthly and otherwise. In 1992, they contributed the song, "Utopia" to a split 7" record and that offering marked the band's humble origins. 4 full-length albums and hundreds of gigs later, thebrotheregg continue to donate engaging and constantly exploding out pop music to the grand murk of rock.

Class M Planets perform at the Fort George brewery and Public House on Sunday, December 13th at 8pm. There is no cover.
