Description

Considering their relatively brief existence, Sunny Day Real Estate racked up enough dramatic twists and turns to rank with some of the great rock soap operas. Their key members engaged in just about every rock cliché imaginable, including finding religion, refusing to work with the media, breaking up, joining a big-name group, and even recording an ambitious full-orchestra pop album — all before reuniting in 1997.

Although formed in 1992 amid the burgeoning hard rock scene in Seattle (and later signed to Northwest power label ), the band could not have been more different from its flannel-clad contemporaries. Originally conceived as a three-piece (guitarist/vocalist Dan Hoerner, bassist Nate Mendel, and drummer William Goldsmith), Sunny Day Real Estate garnered attention when they added enigmatic lead singer , whose high-pitched, continually ascending voice complemented their melodic songs.

Located in The Main Hall at The Queen. All ages, doors open at 6:30 PM, show begins at 7:30 PM. Please adhere to published ticket limits. All support acts are subject to change without notice. Venue reserves the right to cancel ticket orders at its discretion.
