We’re back! Following a critically acclaimed debut mini-season, the chamber music insurgents of Mobtown Modern bring the noise back to Bmore in 2008-2009 with a six concert all out aural assault. From Adams (John Luther, that is) to Zappa, we’re leaving no new music stone unturned this season and minding all the gaps in between. So pick a show, any show (though we’d recommend them all), and find out why the Baltimore Sun recently called Mobtown Modern “one of the coolest things to emerge in Baltimore.” And be sure to check out the new website with all its fancy features, like the Mix Tape, The Modcast, and more!
