Iconic ‘80s Santa Cruz surf/skate/hardcore act, Bl’ast has constructed a heavy timeless musical onslaught since ’82 that has stood on its own and has been proven with time. Their first release in over a decade and a half, Blood is mixed by Dave Grohl has shown the true heavy sounds and intensity of the band. Original Bl’ast alumni, vocalist Clifford Dinsmore (also of Dusted Angel, Gargantula) and guitarist Mike Neider also of (L.A.B. , GUSTO) have recruited Nick Oliveri (Kyuss, Queens of the Stone Age, Mondo Generator) on bass and drummer Hoss Wright (The Exies, Mondo Generator) to flesh out the brand new 2013 lineup.

Lecherous Graze and Hot Lunch open the show.
