We have another July show announcement for you all this afternoon, this one happening on Friday, July 15th. This one is mostly a metal show, but it does have a few twists looks like. We have the alternative metal band “Odds of an Afterthought” coming from Minneapolis, Minnesota. You can stream some of their music on the player embedded below to find out more of what they are about. Also on tour is a band called “Of Brighter Skies” and they come from somewhere up in Wisconsin. Then we have three local bands on the bill, including the solid metalcore act Set Fire To Salem. Then a couple of surprises- we have the new hardcore/grind three-piece Torture Trend on this bill. Then opening things up looks like we have the Psychadelic rock band from Jacksonville- Flamingo.

This show will start at 7:00 pm and admission is $5. You can check out a facebook event for this show right here. Also be sure to check out our shows page for a look at what else is coming up at Black Sheep in the near future.

The July show announcements are piling in harder and faster than we can almost keep up with! This one is happening on Sunday, July 24th and it packs some serious ROCK we are also not sure we can handle. For this show we have the band HOUND (featuring members of Bad Side and Ted Leo & The Pharmacists) coming from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. You can check out some of their music streaming on the player below. To go along with that type of serious rock, we have Springfield’s most serious rock band- Livin’ Thing lined up on this roster. Before that is the relaxed and *chill* Champaign-Urbana 90’s rock band Copper Blue. Then kicking things off we have the very first ever show for a new Springfield band going by the name of “Chili Mac.” Show up on time to find out what that is all about.

This show will start at 7:00 pm and admission is $6 this time around. You can find a facebook event for this one right here. Also check out our shows page for a look at what else is coming up at Black Sheep this summer.

Oh shoot, we really are falling behind on these July show announcements because there are so many of them! This one is coming up on Tuesday, July 5th– it’s less than one week away! For this show we just have a two band touring package lined up, and then we’ll see if any other acts get added! The touring package includes the band The Cambion (pictured above) from somewhere in Indiana and Illinois. Then coming from a little bit farther away is the band Fail To Decay from Minnesota. Stream some of Fail To Decay’s music on the player below, it’s metal. We’ll see if any other local acts get added to this!

It’s looking like this show will start at 7:00 pm and admission is $7. You can find a facebook event for this one right here. Also be sure to check out our shows page for a good look at what else is coming up this July and rest of the summer.

What’s this about? On Wednesday, July 6th (coming up quick) looks like we have this three-band alternative rock show coming up at Black Sheep. We have the band “Super Moon” (pictured above) coming from Omaha, Nebraska. What are they about? Looks like they play some type of “moon rock” and you can find their music streaming on the player below. This show will also be a tour kick-off show for Decatur, Illinois’s very own Mammoth Cannon, and will also be their first time performing at Black Sheep. Come say “hi” and “bye” to them. Opening things up looks like we have the very psychedelic and very groovy Jacksonville-based band Flamingo taking the big stage.

This show will start at 7:00 pm and admission is $5. You can find a facebook event for this one right here. And of course check out our shows page for a good look at what else is coming up this summer at Black Sheep.
