Smart bets: The Stump Mutts

Posted on by Kat McReynolds

“Shake off your Thanksgiving cabin fever,” invites a press release from The Stump Mutts. The local alternative rockers will hold a concert and afterparty in celebration of their upcoming EP release, We Can All Relate, and each advance ticket includes a free download of the album for studious types who like to memorize lyrics ahead of time. According to the band, The Stump Mutts’ tunes “evoke relatable stories of toxic relationships, love and loss, obsession, rebellion, deceit and desire,” but their live show will end on a positive note with an upbeat, hourlong set by DJ Molly Parti. Fellow Asheville rockers Hard Rocket open the show at 8 p.m., on Saturday, Nov. 29, at The Millroom. $5 advance/$8 day of show. ashevillemillroom.com. Photo courtesy of the band
