For the second year in a row, the Modern Skirts come to Ashford Manor for the most upbeat pop concert of the series. Imagine what the Beach Boys would sound like if they'd been born in the Athens bar scene instead of on the shores of California; that's what you get with the Modern skirts. Offering pure, listenable vocals, upbeat drums, and a foundation of rock-out piano and guitar, these guys will fill your head with melodies you won't soon forget. Add in an endearing indie sound and an adventurous sense of writing, and there's no way to resist the infatuation inspired by the Modern Skirts. Don't worry-- we'll make sure they bring some CDs and a few shirts so you can proclaim your newfound love for this completely lovable lineup.
