Candy Ambulance, based out of Albany, started the evening off with lots of grunge filled tunes that had a slight injection of Courtney Barnett to them. Caitlin Barker’s vocals go from zero to 60 in mere seconds as she has so much energy coming out of her she can’t help but scream the words from time to time. Jesse Bolduc pounded the drums relentlessly and Jon Cantiello constantly moved around the floor as he added the low end to each song with perfection. The band is working on a new EP that should be out by the summer and just got back from South by Southwest, where they played a bunch of unofficial sets. They are also opening up for Speedy Ortiz next month and with the energy they have, more great slots should open up for them soon. Keep your eye on them. - Pancakes and Whiskey

Bio
Formed in the summer of 2014, grunge-influenced Candy Ambulance of Upstate NY are Caitlin Barker, Jesse Bolduc & Jon Cantiello. Lifelong friends and musical mates Bolduc & Cantiello rescued Barker from a wealthy engagement prospect and whisked her away to the land of DIY punk. Poppy melodies, dynamic vocal changes and half naked live shows have solidified this rock trio as always entertaining, unabashed fun.
Boasting a healthy and frequent tour schedule the band has played with notable acts such as Screaming Females, Speedy Ortiz, Daddy Issues, and Dorothy.
