With the teasing of new music coming out this Monday, we’re reminiscing on Anthony Green’s solo Boom. Done. Tour stopover in Saint Louis last month. Green—the singer behind such bands as Circa Survive, the Sound of Animals Fighting, and LS Dunes—was accompanied by fellow Pennsylvanian bands SNZR, a two-piece alt rock group from Delaware County, and two-fourths of Queen of Jeans, a label proclaimed member of the genre “crockpot pop” based out of Philly.
It was an intimate evening amongst friends singing favorites that spanned Green’s extensive discography of solo material, Circa Survive favorites, and a special cover of Title Fight’s “Numb, but I Still Feel It.” The evening opened with a hopeful ode, “I Don’t Want to Die Tonight,” and it’s so good to see Green alive and well doing what he does best. The songs are raw, stripped of their horns and uplifting melodies as Green stands on stage delivering his signature vocals with an electric guitar. Green closed out the evening with an unreleased song, “Megadeath,” which comes out this Monday, April 22. Make sure to pre-save on your favorite streaming platform!
Green is also an open advocate for harm reduction and has partnered with End Overdose while out on this tour. End Overdose is a non-profit organization located in Los Angeles, California working to end drug-related overdose deaths through education, medical intervention, and public awareness.
