Brand New is an alternative band from Long Island, New York. The band is scheduled to play at Club Zoo this Sunday, April 25, at 7:30pm. Unfortunately, the show is sold out. Both Ticketmaster and StubHub are out of tickets, but StubHub is still accepting tickets from anyone that wants to re-sell. Brand New's latest album Daisy was released in September 2009 and the band is currently touring for the album. The band's next two tour dates are sold out, but check the band's MySpace for any updates on tour information. The band is also working on creating a new official website which the page says is "coming soon." I would definitely recommend giving this band a listen and watch for any near by shows!
