As part of the WVAU Capital Punishment free concert series, we’re hosting an evening with Fang Island and Eternal Summers on Friday, Nov. 9 in the SIS Founders Room. Tickets are FREE with an AU student ID. Come, bring your friends and revel with us in one of the raddest shows in WVAU history.

Fang Island

“This music is just honest and life-affirming and infectious, and it’s that rare concentration of directness and simplicity that makes Fang Island so uniquely and wonderfully inclusive.” – Pitchfork

“Fang Island come across a notch above enthusiastic, inspiring images of someone carrying the Olympic torch up a mountain, planes landing in Top Gun, a badass fatality in a Mortal Kombat tournament, a party montage that involves lots a beer spilling and men hugging each other.” – Consequence of Sound

“The soundtrack to your favorite ‰’90s adolescent rom-com” – NME

Eternal Summers

“The Roanoke duo makes a virtue of its limitations, matching concise rhythms to noisy jangle in the mode of older stripped-down indie-pop acts like Pylon, Orange Juice, and Unrest.‰” – AV Club

“You think you might get bowled over with its ramshackle guitars, but singer Nicole‰’s smooth, sugary vocals stream in and hold the song together like a velvet ribbon on a birthday package, unwavering and fealty.‰” – The Fader

“Minimalistic power punk with a smile.‰” – Oh My Rockness

Sun Club
