Southern California Record Release Party Is Confirmed For June 12 At Spaceland In Celebration Of ‘Dancing On The Gallows’ Sandwiched Between May Through August Tour Dates For The Bluegrass/Punk/Alt-Country Band

Los Angeles-based Americana band Rose’s Pawn Shop (http://www.rosespawnshop.com/), announced today that they will release their sophomore CD, Dancing On The Gallows on August 3 and begin an extensive Summer tour commencing Thursday May 27 at the Amnesia in San Francisco, CA.

Described by AOL as sounding like “Del McCoury meets Mick Jagger,” Rose’s Pawn Shop’s punk bluegrass-a-billy attitude and their genre-blending, boot-stomping tunes, will be extensively showcased throughout the summer, including their Southern California record release party at Spaceland in Los Angeles on June 12.  As the band will be heading up the West Coast just prior, July and August will be spent playing everywhere from Vegas to Brooklyn. This is Rose’s Pawn Shop’s fourth annual exhaustive summer tour of saloons, wineries, cafés, breweries, clubs and festivals. Additional tour dates to be added; all confirmed tour dates are below.

Seattle tastemaker radio station KEXP, in a recent review of Dancing On The Gallows said, “Rose’s Pawn Shop is as close to authentic bluegrass roots as you can get from an L.A. band. This is a compliment, not a bash…Rose’s Pawn Shop makes a statement with their music. Life is hard and we’re gonna sing about it and get over it. Sometimes it’s upbeat, sometimes it’s slow and sorrowful. Regardless, they know their roots and that is remarkably bold.”
