6PM DOORS /// 7PM SHOW /// ALL-AGES
BRONZE–
The seeds of Bronze were planted, curiously enough, at an avant-garde Japanese noise show. Dylan Ryan and Scott McGaughey first met as teenagers at DePaul University in Chicago, recognizing each other as having attended the same Ruins show, kindred spirits converging in the Chicago indie rock underground. They played in various rock bands in the 90s, but they found they had a particular itch that was not scratched by the various projects they were involved in; a shared love for the likes of Robin Gibb, Roxy Music and the soundtracks of Tangerine Dream, the kind of shimmering studio productions that sound luxurious but still push the envelope.
