Welles is opening for Dead Sara at Black Cat on Tuesday, Sept. 18. The show is sold out, but Welles has given Parklife DC a pair of tickets to give away! You can win tickets to see Welles and Dead Sara with Parklife DC.
Fronted by Jesse Wells, Welles released their debut album, Red Trees and White Trashes, in June via 300 Entertainment. NPR Music called the album “huge, putting Welles in the same league as the smart bands reviving rock’s mainstream right now, like Royal Blood and Greta Van Fleet.”
After growing up in rural Arkansas, Jesse moved to Nashville and recruited bandmates to form Welles. Working with producer Dave Cobb on some songs, the resulting record is a bit psychedelic and a lot of fun.
Watch the official music video for “Seventeen” by Welles on YouTube:

Are you feeling like me? Like wanting to see… This show!
Hey there! I’m out of town, so does it count if I make the deadline in the time zone I’m in? Pretty please.
The thing is, I’m scum of the earth, but I still spit on the dirt. And when I come home to DC, all I want to do is tell the people tearing down our city, building up those hideous condos, how much I want the people thriving underground to rise up and fight back.
I’m not your model citizen No, I’m not your daughter And I’m not your bitch. Winning these tickets would be a dream come true.
Sincerely, with the honey left behind in beesting,
The all-American girl, lesbo-gay maniac
