The Knux: From Letterman to Pittsfield (and They're Bringing Jordy Towers With Them)!!!!

The Knux are one of more unique and original acts that fall under the broad hip-hop umbrella and it was exciting to learn that they're performing in Pittsfield the day after Thanksgiving at Chameleon's Nightclub!  Rarely do musicians who appear on late night television one week show up in Pittsfield a few weeks later, on purpose.  Originally from New Orleans, but currently based in Los Angeles, The Knux have been making a lot of noise since their first official release in 2008 and are currently on an extensive tour for their latest full-length, Eraser.  Brothers Krispy and Joey have created a true hip-hop/rock hybrid that's making waves across the nation thus getting The Knux invites to play several major music festivals in 2009.

Fans of Entourage may remember hearing "Bang! Bang!" by The Knux in that show's 5th season promo spots and the track "Cappucino" in Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay.  On September 28, 2011 they performed their latest single "Run" (without collaborator Kid Cudi) on the Late Show with David Letterman and now they're set to hit Pittsfield along with the equally exciting performer, Jordy Towers (formerly known as Optimus), on Friday September 25th. 

The 18+ show is $8 and doors open 8pm, Chameleon's Nightclub is located at 1350 East St., Pittsfield MA 01201
