June Divided @ Union Transfer.
June Divided burst onto the scene a few years ago, joining the Warped Tour soon after forming and getting exposure on MTVu and other major outlets. But then they slowed down and for more than a year, the bandmates worked on a new project.
Last night at Union Transfer, June Divided celebrated the release of their new EP, Body Wars, in front a room full of family, friends and longtime fans.
Teenagers from the music school where frontwoman Melissa Menago teaches lined the front row. Colleagues of drummer Keith Gill, who works as a plumber when he’s not making music, snuck up to the stage to snap pics as the show began. And shouts to bass player Lenny Sasso and guitarist Chris Kissel were sprinkled in between songs.
The new music has a different sound from the band’s early days. While they still have heavy guitar riffs and hints of Paramore, they also have more keyboards and an electro sound at times.
The Superweaks and PHNTMS opened the show.
