From the venue:
Sheer Mag’s dizzying rise initiated in 2014, when the Philadelphia band self-released the first of three 7-inches and started playing the Northeastern DIY circuit. Ironically, the music stood apart because it sounded so familiar. Indebted to ‘70s arena rock, power-pop, and proto-metal, Sheer Mag’s songs are reminiscent of the songs we grew up with, but maybe couldn’t relate to because they were big, brash, and unapologetically macho. Sheer Mag reclaims some of that energy without perpetuating the toxicity.
