Missy Higgins, Zox, Amity Front March 11, 2008

Missy Higgins is a singer/songwriter from Melbourne, Australia.

What happens when groove-laden reggae and frenetic rock meet a violin sonata at a house party? The answer is ZOX, an emerging foursome from Providence, RI, whose unique blend of rock, reggae, punk and classical has begun to shake up clubs and colleges across New England. This rock quartet from Washington, DC came together in early 1999. After a few name changes and the addition of a lead guitarist, they settled on the name of Army of Me and began to play up and down the East Coast.

The Amity Front has developed into one of the best old time-blues and americana bands around. The sound is a ride into America's past complete with Erik Alan's finger-picking, lead guitar Levin Schwartz's dynamic solos and upright bassist Max Adam's low end walking bass lines.
