In support of their recently released studio LP, Color Wheel, Buffalo's Aqueous will embark on their most extensive headlining tour to date. Along the tour, they're making a very special stop at Brooklyn, NY's legendary Knitting Factory and they are well aware it lands on October 31st – Halloween.
"We take Halloween pretty seriously over at camp AQ. In previous years we’ve done some wild themes where we’ll incorporate all the music and the whole vibe of whatever the theme is," shares Aqueous guitarist, Mike Gantzer. "This year for our show at the Knitting Factory in Brooklyn, we wanted to pay tribute to a golden era of cartoon history: Nick Toons! We all grew up loving shows like Doug, Rocko’s Modern Life, Rugrats, Ren and Stimpy, Hey Arnold, Spongebob Squarepants, and the list goes on and on. The music from a lot of these shows is so awesome, and it’s gonna be a blast diving down this rabbit hole of nostalgia and blending the whole Nickelodeon vibe within the AQ sound. Add Mungion as support to the mix, and you’ve got a pretty bombastic show going down for Halloween this year."
Past themes for Aqueous Halloween have included Wizard of Oz, Back To The Future and Super Mario Brothers.
Limited tickets remain for the Halloween throwdown at Knitting Factory and can be purchased here. All other upcoming dates can be purchased via the band's website.
