L.S. Dunes made their NYC debut on November 29, 2022. But this wasn’t their first rodeo, as the band consists of Anthony Green (Circa Survive and Saosin), Frank Iero (My Chemical Romance), Travis Stever (Coheed and Cambria), Tim Payne and Tucker Rule (Thursday). They played songs off of their newly released album Past Lives while the many people who already memorized the lyrics sang along. L.S. Dunes’ stage presence was at 100% and the crowd reciprocated. Their performance was striking, electrifying and exhilarating. This was the only place to be that night.
