Screamer, singer, storyteller -- Dave Smalley is a hardcore voice of a generation. Believing that punk rock music and lyrics and attitude make our lives, and our world, better, his legendary bands – D.Y.S., Dag Nasty, ALL and Down By Law – have made an impact on countless people all over the world since 1981. Now Dave brings some of those songs, and some of the stories, to the stage for a special one-night intimate show. He and his friend, Marcelo Pesoa, of the acclaimed Spanish melodic punk group the Rockweilers, will play a unique collection of songs from across Dave’s long career, as well as a few surprises that will make audiences smile, cheer and sing along.
“I have always loved the connection with people and the special vibe at the solo shows,” Dave says. “It’s kind of the essence of music to me – sharing stories, being open and connecting musically in a way that is very personal.”
Enjoy a night of music and memories and pure punk rock passion.

Homer just released the new 'loved loss' EP, where they take the bandsound one step further to deliver what might be their best set of songs ever.   For the production and arrangements they teamed up with Ace Zec (Customs, Death Before Disco, Diablo Boulevard...) of Oceanside studio (Oostende)   The result is a fine combination of melody and agression, technical skills and pounding rhythms.  The hybrid sound Homer always stood for is taken to a whole new level.   You can call it hardcore, metal, dirty rock'n roll or punkrock...that actually doesn't matter, cause in the end this is a fine piece of great loud guitarmusic that rocks with a big R!
