EazySide + PV Asian at Frontier Brewing Company

EazySide is a four-piece reggae-punk-rock-infused band from Casper, Wyoming. Together for ten years, they play and perform an exciting mix of grooving, danceable music that has a universal appeal to people of all ages. Their sets are comprised of equal parts memorable, melodic original songs, mixed with choice non-standard covers from many genres, some reinterpreted with a modern, “get on your feet and dance” flair. Composed of Lead Vocalist/Ukulele extraordinaire Brennan Capellas, Ripping Guitar/Harmony Vocalist Bobby Love, Bass Groovemaster Adam “ABOMB” Boyles, and Drummer Jarrad “The King” Campos, the band is currently putting the finishing touches on their new (and fourth overall) release. While EazySide has shared the stage with many great bands over the years (including a riotous opening with an appreciative home-town crowd for Sublime at the Casper Events Center), their focus remains on forward momentum, and writing/creating/recording/performing music that moves the body and inspires the soul. Check out some performances at www.eazyside.com and be sure to join us at Frontier Brewing for this FREE, all-ages show!

PV Asian will also be serving up tasty cuisine from 2pm until the food is gone. Don’t miss it!
