The Academy Is...

The Academy Is… comes to Buffalo on Saturday (Nov. 10), on the “Sleeping With Giants Tour” with Armor For Sleep, the Rocket Summer, Sherwood and Cobra Starship. The Academy is… has risen to pop fame through relentless touring with the likes of Fall Out Boy, Matchbook Romance, Motion City Soundtrack and Panic! at the Disco. The indie rock band is based out of the Chicago suburb of Hoffman Estates and signed to the label Fueled by Ramen. Lead singer William Beckett has collaborated with Fall Out Boy and Cobra Starship, lending his voice to Cobra’s “Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)” for the soundtrack for that movie. Originally scheduled at Evolution Night Club, the show has been moved to Club Infinity, where tickets for Evolution will be honored at the door. Doors open at 6pm.
