Gin Blossoms - A Benefit for ANASAZI Foundation

Saturday, Dec 6 (2008) 7:00p
at Mesa Arts Center, Mesa, AZ
Price: $25
Phone: (480) 644-6500
Age Suitability: All Ages

The legendary Gin Blossoms perform a benefit for ANASAZI Foundation, with Jesca Hoop, Joshua James, Benton Paul, and Firefly

With such enduring and memorable songs as “Hey Jealousy,” “Allison Road,” “Follow You Down,” and “Til I Hear It From You,” the Gin Blossoms’ inventive, instantly appealing smart pop has made an indelible imprint on the history of rock and roll.

After a difficult breakup, a stirring reunion and a few years of playing live shows together, the Gin Blossoms recently completed Major Lodge Victory, an album that is both long-awaited and well worth the wait.

The Tempe-based band returns home to the Valley for a concert benefiting the non-profit ANASAZI Foundation. Proceeds from the show will help financially challenged families seeking to save a son or daughter struggling with substance abuse, depression, and other concerns.

Joining the Gin Blossoms are renowned singer-songwriter Jesca Hoop, indie sensation Joshua James, and Benton Paul. Local trio Firefly opens the show at 7 p.m.

Gin Blossoms
Gin Blossoms Remove performer from this event
Fueled by mega-hits including "Hey Jealousy," "Found Out About You" and "Til I Hear It From You," Gin Blossoms completed the classic crossover from college-circuit heroes to multi-platinum album sellers.
Jesca Hoop
Jesca Hoop Remove performer from this event
A sensual, esoteric singer/songwriter whose odd, sparse songs nod to influences like Paul Simon, Joni Mitchell, and Vashti Bunyan, Jesca Hoop got her big break thanks to her gig as a nanny for Tom Waits' offspring in the early 2000s.
