The Dimes at Crook County High School Tonight



These guys are the real deal. They are doing a benefit for our high school's Americana (singer/songwriter) program. Their album, "The Silent Generation" is brilliant, and reminiscent of the Portland influx of Colin Meloy, The Shins, and Death Cab. Still they are uniquely their own, and they are even better in person. A great bunch of guys who gave us a teaser of tonight's concert during 5th period today. A very well-timed upbeat/melancholy event after a very emotional week at CCHS.

They've been featured in many places, including SPIN. Check out the buzz at
