The new Every Time I Die/Dillinger Escape Plan supergroup Better Lovers have announced the inaugural edition of their new Buffalo holiday show, BLissmas, which seems like a smaller-scale continuation of ETID’s Tid the Season. It goes down December 8 at Town Ballroom with It Dies Today, The Callous Daoboys, Greyhaven, and Spaced. Tickets go on sale Friday (10/6) at 10 AM.
The band says:
We are proud to announce BLissmass! Our 1st annual holiday show/festival! We couldn’t be more excited to perform, host and welcome everyone to Buffalo in December once again. Being back on the road this year and talking to all of you, we realized how much this weekend means to everyone and it became a tradition that was dearly missed by many. This band had its first ever practice, songs written, and shows played, in Buffalo. This show is special to us, and it’s special to the city.
We will host a toy drive for Toys For Tots, a non-profit public charity that distributes toys to less fortunate children. We encourage attendees to donate a new, unwrapped toy in exchange for a free gift at our merch table.
We thank It Dies Today, The Callous Daoboys, Greyhaven, and Spaced for being part of this inaugural show, and we can’t wait to kick this off and watch it grow for years to come.
Better Lovers released their debut EP God Made Me An Animal in July and they said in a new interview with Revolver that fans might be able to expect another short-form release this year, and that they have a full-length album in the works too. Read more here.
