Flashed, chilled and thrilled

There was a rare Tuesday show at House of Targ this week; White Lung are on tour (mostly done now, just a few U.S. dates to go), and they drew a good crowd. Also on stage: Local lights Chiller and Kings Quest and Washington D.C. post-punks Flasher. Chiller were on first and played a hard-hitting set. Here's Tim!

On to Flasher, a trio formed by Washington music scene veterans (singer Taylor comes from Priests, drummer Emma from Big Hush and bassist Daniel from Bless). They've got a bit of a Smiths sound going on, and some really top-notch vocal work. Here's Daniel!

White Lung ended the night in killer style; unfortunately the lights were really down too low for photgraphy and I didn't feel like using a lot of flash so I only took a handful of photos. That said, Here's Mish!



Guitar action with Kenneth!



Anne-Marie hits!



Gripping action, plus a bassist whose name I know not!



More bassist!



Extra Mish!



A top-notch night.
