The Midwest’s longest running Shoegaze and Dreampop fest, KALAMASHOEGAZER, is back and better than ever this year at the iconic Bell’s Eccentric Cafe with 7 amazing bands: 

Citrus Clouds from Phoenix, AZ, 

Bodywash from Montreal, Canada, 

Dottie from Austin TX, 

Brief Candles from Milwaukee, WI, 

Cool Heat from Chicago, IL, 

Tambourina from Kalamazoo, MI.

And we’re pleased to announce, performing for the first time ever in the US;

Pia Fraus, from Estonia, is headlining the event.

As with years past, there will be various giveaways and prizes, and once again a unique guitar effects pedal will be raffled off, courtesy of Mojo Hand FX by the end of the night. 

Shoegazers from across the US travel to our humble city of Kalamazoo, MI each year to join us for this event, making it truly a sort of homecoming for “The Scene That Celebrates Itself.
