SUMMARY:DRAIN - Quarry Amphitheater (April 18th)
DESCRIPTION:Tickets are on sale at quarryamphitheater.com\, starting at $55.96 for general admission \nDRAIN came together in the sleepy\, oceanside NorCal climes of Santa Cruz in 2014 when Ciaramitaro met up with guitarist Cody Chavez and drummer Tim Flegal while attending college. “We had no idea or gameplan of what we were trying to do\,” says Sammy. “It was more like\, ‘Hey\, you have a metal band T-shirt\, and I got a Downpresser shirt on\, and someone likes Municipal Waste. We should all play together.’” While nearby scenes like San Jose and Oakland (known for the legendary Gilman Street venue) had local heat\, Drain had to pull up their bootstraps to ignite their own. “We made our own scene in Santa Cruz\,” reveals the DIY vocalist proudly; he began booking shows at Café Pergolesi\, a local coffee shop that became the town’s hardcore hub.
