LAUNCH Music Conference and Festival has announced the addition of indie/emo legends The Juliana Theory to the list of performers slated to appear at this year’s event.
The band will be joined by Carousel Kings who will be playing an acoustic set. The show takes place Friday, May 1st, 2020 at Chameleon Club. Tickets now available at: http://bit.ly/
Celebrating it’s 12th year, The LAUNCH Music Conference and Festival will once again take over Historic Downtown Lancaster April 30-May 3, 2020.
LAUNCH founder/director Jeremy Weiss says, “We are ecstatic that The Juliana Theory accepting our invitation to perform at LAUNCH 2020! This band crafted some of the single greatest, time-honored Indie and Emo songs of their generation. Alongside close contemporaries like Jimmy Eat World, Saves the Day, The Get Up Kids, My Chemical Romance, Sense Field and more, they are part of the blueprint of modern indie music. To be able to hear classic tracks from their “Emotion is Dead” and “Love” albums, in their originally written, intimate, acoustic forms is an additional, major bonus!”
Side note: Weiss, as a tour manager, toured with The Juliana Theory several times in the early 2000’s during their career ascent, and the explosion of enthusiasm for their classic album, “Emotion is Dead.” His label, CI Records, released the original vinyl pressing of “Emotion Is Dead” in 2002, a now highly sought-after collectible piece.
