Ever so gradually, downtown Lake Worth — specifically Propaganda — is picking up steam by not only booking local acts for most nights during a week but some good national acts as well.
In addition to such upcoming local acts as Noble Rocket, Black Finger, The Get and others, Propaganda has some up-and-coming regional and national acts as well.
In two cases, tickets are on sale now and you should try to get your hands on them — Propaganda will likely sell out.
On Oct. 21, Brooklyn’s Vivian Girls will visit. The band has just released its second album, Everything Goes Wrong, on the heels of its self-titled, well-received debut. Their lo-fi sound is built on fun and punky atmosphere.
On Nov. 10, Boston’s Big D and the Kids Table will also be coming into Lake Worth. This ska band has been around since 1995, playing upwards of 200 shows a year and honing their big-party sound.
Another can’t-miss show is coming Oct. 9 when the Dex Romweber Duo heads to town. Dexter Romweber played with the band Flat Duo Jets — if you ever saw the film Athens, Ga., Inside Out, you’d remember them — and now joins his sister Sara Romweber (one-time drummer with ’80s influence Let’s Active) in a guitar-drums pairing.
