MONDAY PICK | 2:54 at the Triple Rock Social Club: Six seconds to perfection
Were Britain's 2:54 the last band to break via MySpace? With their big splash coming in 2010, Hannah and Colette Thurlow must have been close. They're a perfect MySpace act, too: a pair of sisters with mirror tattoos, a crunchy emo sound, and an official bio that includes phrases like "the musical drug took hold." Expect spectacle on June 18 at the Triple Rock.
