The 5-piece Pittsburgh based band, SHADE, played Mercury Lounge on Friday, April 20th and this was their best performance to date…and I have seen them a bunch of times. Starting off their set with one of my favorite tracks, ‘Broken Ribs,’ from their newly released album, “Arms Raised On Rooftops,” SHADE had the crowd going from the first riff. From there, the show just got better with popular tracks like ‘Wide Eyed’ and ‘Jade Dagger.’ This ground breaking performance ended with full on jam session that had
the crowd in awe. I’m just waiting until they make the trek back to NYC b/c I can’t wait to see them again!’
