Shonen Knife Playing The Bell House On 11/18, Releasing A Christmas Single

I interviewed Naoko Yamano way back in the day, check it out!

While we unfortunately missed Shonen Knife when they came to NYC for CMJ, the legendary Japanese punk rockers are giving us another chance a little over a week from now when they come back to rock The Bell House next Friday (11/18). Tickets are still available, so grab one and come have a beer with us at the show.

The band will also be wrapping up their yearlong 30th Anniversary celebration by releasing a new Christmas Maxi Single juuuuust after Thanksgiving on November 29. The single will include studio and acoustic cuts of the seasonally-appropriate song (accept it, Christmas is just a little over a month away) "Sweet Christmas," plus their take on the classic "We Wish You A Merry Christmas." (Thanks to BV for the tip)

Check out the single teaser below via Good Charamel. Since this is a Shonen Knife song, there is understandably some delicious cake involved.
