Texas Is the Reason
Texas Is the Reason performs at Union Stage with Her Head’s On Fire and Brooklyn quartet Common Sage. Common Sage blends melodic post-hardcore with the influence of the Long Island emo scene, pairing dissonant, energetic riffs with deliberate, unconventional songwriting. The band has drawn contributions to its new music from Geoff Rickly and Steve Pedulla of Thursday, as well as Jason Gleason of Further Seems Forever.
