The Doughboys Live at The Suffolk!!!
Friday, April 29 at 9:00pm - April 30 at 12:00am
Location The Suffolk, 107 Suffolk Street, Lower East Side, NYC
The Suffolk is thrilled to present THE DOUGHBOYS live with SONIC BLUE SOUND REVUE, Friday April 29!!!
For the uninitiated, the Doughboys were an amazing garage rock band during their initial stint in the mid '60s, and were the house band at Cafe Wha? in 1968. After a brief 35 year hiatus, they got back together and are, very seriously, better than ever. They've put out 2 full length albums since reuniting, and their songs have repeatedly been chosen "Coolest Songs in the Word" on Little Steven's Underground Garage, and for good reason!
So, needless to say, you should probably go to this show.
Check 'em out!:
