About Me

June 22 at the Walters Art Museum. Music: Faster Faster Harder Harder. 7 p.m., Museum CafÃ©, FREE. Though the name may be crazy and a bit misleading, Baltimore's Faster Faster Harder Harder are serious about making dark and catchy indie rock songs. The current line-up came together in September 2005 and has been recording and playing shows throughout the Baltimore-Washington region ever since. With two self-released EPs under their belt, FFHH are currently hard at work on their debut album, with release plans set for Summer 2007. Music Monthly called FFHH "one of the strongest rock bands to come out of Baltimore recently" and with good reason: their live shows are tight and powerful, and their songs are equally intriguing and memorable. FFHH's performance at the Walters Art Museum is an event not to be missed, as it marks the first time the band will perform an all acoustic show.
