About this concert
Very pleased to present An Evening with Sneakers on June 21, 2024, in Gas Hill Drinking Room! Doors at 7 PM, show at 8 PM.
Tickets are on sale NOW at TheRamkat.com!
In 1976, Sneakers (Mitch Easter, Rob Slater, & Chris Stamey (guitars), Will Rigby (drums), and Robert Keely (bass)) released an influential six-song EP, engineered by Don Dixon. The duo of Easter and Stamey followed this with the albums "In the Red" and "Racket." Stamey and Rigby would go on to form The dB's and Easter would reappear in Let's Active — but the Sneakers EP remains vital not only to independent record history, but also to guitar-pop music in general.
This summer, for selected dates, Easter, Stamey, and Rigby will be joined by Gene Holder (also from the dB's) on electric bass.

The venue was intimate and the audience was very engaged throughout. The sound was great and Mr. Stamey was spontaneous and vulnerable. The set length was just right and the setlist struck a balance of the old, the new and the obscure. And the ticket price was quite reasonable. More! More! (Just one request--ditch the music stands.)

Chris Stamey Biography
Born December 6, 1954 in Chapel Hill, NC.
Played with Mitch Easter (producer of R.E.M.) in the Sneakers. His quirky jangle pop band in the beginning of the 80es, called dB's (Decibels) never get the attention the likes of R.E.M. got. Later on he went on as a producer. He's mostly connected to power pop, jangle pop, his name should be noted along the likes of Alex Chilton, Ken Stringfellow, Colin Hay.
