Burning up stages all over the StL, The Orbz continue to amaze and excite newcomers with their infectious sound.
Borrowing elements of the legendary Manchester sound, post punk, 80's new wave, and peppering it with dashes of funk, and shoegaze, The Orbz musical influences stem from the eclectic tastes of four true music junkies.
Picture Rush in a cage match with Fugazi...Elvis Costello filling in for the Fixx...Flea sitting in with Bowie, or the Police going head to head with Television...it all makes sense when you hear the Orbz.
With a live show that can't be beat and a sound that can't be easily quantified, The Orbz are out to show folks how much fun music can be again.
Come see a show… you won't regret it!
Bands We're proud to say we've shared the stage with!
i know it's a monday night and people usually take it easy, but please come out if you can. it starts at 9, and I'm not sure when we play, but the other bands are cool and we're really excited to play the show.
Sorry, peeps...I won't be at Friday's show. I thought it was the following week, and as a result, I work late this coming Friday. I will be sure to make Cathedralfete.
Another great show, guys! Great bill too...all the bands were great.
I wondered how the late spot would work for you guys, and I think it worked really well in this case. You were loose and relaxed and just played the fuck out. Probably my favorite show of the ones I've seen so far.
Incidentally, this was my 11th Orbz show...in a row to boot! If I see you at Rockstar and Cathedral Fete (which are almost guarantees), you guys will become the band I have seen the most times. Currently, I've seen the Reverend Horton Heat 12 times, with the 13th time coming in November. So you guys are way up there with me. :)
Hey! We're just trying to let our Missouri friends know that we're playing with Clouds, Torche, Holy Python, and the Gloaming this Saturday night at 2 Cents Plain in St Louis and we'd love to see you there!
