Sounds of Macrock 2014 #2: Ex Hex

A wonderful thing happens every year in the beauteous mountains of Western Virginia. For one weekend in early April, the city of Harrisonburg is the epicenter of a dynamite little festival, the Mid Atlantic College Radio Conference, otherwise known as Macrock. I’ve been to a couple of these events, and have had a brilliant time taking in the bands and breathing the beautiful mountain air. Alas and alack, I won’t be in Harrisonburg this weekend for this year’s Macrock, but that doesn’t mean I’m not paying attention to who’s going to be playing. I’ve made a list of bands I think worthy of your time, whether you’re heading to the mountains or not.

Ex Hex is rad not only because they're local, but because they're doing seriously killer glam-tinged punky sass that, when you boil it down, plays to their self-proclaimed "power trio" soul. They are awesome, in short, and will more than likely melt some willing and able faces this weekend.
