Lemuria to support Anti-Flag at Mohawk Place on Thursday, May 19

Buffalo's own three-piece indie punk outfit Lemuria will support Anti-Flag at Mohawk Place on Thursday, May 19.

Since the summer of 2004, Lemuria has been one of the hardest working bands in Buffalo. The band released a handful of 7"s before the release of their debut full-length, Get Better, in 2008 on Asian Man Records. In April 2010, Lemuria announced that they had signed with Boston-based hardcore label Bridge 9 Records. In July the band headed to Baltimore, MD to record with producer J Robbins at Magpie Cage (Hey Mercedes, The Promise Ring, Jawbreaker). Lemuria's sophomore release and Bridge 9 debut, Pebbles, hit stores on January 11, 2011.
