The Orwells

They both blew me away and the concert exceeded my expectations. They were lively, exciting and they sounded incredible. No complaints at all.

The Bowery Ballroom was packed and the crowd went crazy during the Orwells high energy, charismatic set. Rock & roll like it oughta be; like it used to be. One after another, audience members jumped on stage and jumped back into the crowd, all of them caught by the enthusiastic crowd. Every song rocked, with lead singer Mario Cuomo leading the antics with his all-in wild-eyed singing style, always interacting interacting with the crowd, and even climbing an attached ladder mid-song. The band was totally into it, and so was the crowd. A young band who understands rock, with a big future awaiting them. Their new "hit" Who Need You, was a highlight of the evening. A fantastic show.

Midway through a song Mario ran off the stage and never came back, cutting the concert short. Beyond unprofessional.

Hands down the best concert I've ever been to. I originally got the tickets because of their openers, The Walters, but I had such a good time watching The Orwells too. The fans were absolutely crazy and the venue was awesome. It has been a week since the concert and I still can't stop thinking about it.

They are amazing, one of the best bands coming up right now

Orwells were fantastic, even their openers were great. Crazy fans it was awesome.

Probably the best new rock band out there today. They killed at this show. See them before they start playing the Garden and tickets are $100.

I loved the opener, super amazing and I was afraid that they were gonna steal the show but in the end, it was a complete package. The Orwells put on a fantastic show also despite how some people were acting towards the lead singer. Overall, completey loved the night and the two fantastic shows--also got to meet both leads at the merch table.

Absolutely killed it. Venue was beautiful, spacious yet close-knit all at once.

It was just a super fun show. To start off, Bowery Ballroom is always a great venue, lounge area down stairs, stage upstairs with balcony open to all, multiple bar areas, it has something for everyone. In terms of the show itself both bands really knew how to have a good time and brought that energy to the crowd. The opener, Twin Peaks really proved themselves, as I had never heard of them before, this tour should really help get their name out there. The Orwells were just crazy and fun with Mario Cuomo really going all over the place and the rest of the band backing him up with quality music. It was a really fun show I won't forget anytime soon!

The Orwells killed it and the opening band as well

I had never listened to their music before this show, and I wound up loving it. My ears were ringing for two days after and they covered my favorite Iggy Pop song as a finisher. I'd love to see them again!

This was the 6th time I have seen The Orwells since August 2013 and this show most definitely didn't disappoint. Great Scott is an awesome small venue and bar. The show was filled with young twenty somethings looking to get a little rowdy at a grungy punk show. Mario Cuomo, The Orwells front man continues to be crazy and after a woman took off his belt he proceeded to tie it around his neck. They played classics like "Mallrats" and also some of their newest songs like "Who Needs You" and "Righteous One." Oh yeah and Twin Peax were pretty cool to start off the show too. If you haven't listened to The Orwells yet, you need to, since they aren't going anywhere soon.
