On the eve of Indiginous People’s Day at The Warehouse in Amityville, Long Island, Original Music Matinee will host an extensive, original, musical bonanza.
The show begins at 2pm sharp on October 13 and lasts for eight hours. In that time frame, at least 10 bands are to perform, with a variety of genres in store. All the bases are to be covered here – acoustic to metal to punk to pop and more. The show sees a variety of bands from the Long Island area including Ramener, The Buddy System Forever, Hostile Intent, Sharp Violet, Terror Garden, The Walk-a-bout, Deladie, and Original Gossip.
Performing as solo acts are fellow Long Island artists Stephen Robinson and Richie Schweers. These two artists kick off the show with their acoustic jams and soulful voices before the heavy metal, punk and hard rock bands take the stage to change the pace. The real kicker is, to see all these talented performers is only 10 bucks.
The All-Original Music Matinee at Prohibition promotes local artists and bands who create original pieces, contrary to cover/tribute bands. The aim of this organization is to get these up-and-coming, original acts on bills akin to that of tribute bands, like bar venues and event spaces in Long Island.
