TWO TRUTHS & A LIE 🤘 Bad Timing Edition
Which one is the lie 👇

1️⃣ Their first gig was a basement house show. Less than 10 people showed up.

2️⃣ Their bass player’s guitar is called “Butter Stick”

3️⃣ They almost named the band “Midnight Exit”

🎸 YooperFest Band Spotlight 🎸
Sore On Sunday
Sore on Sunday is a rock band from Gladstone MI formed in 2006. The group delivers straightforward high octane shows with rock and pop-punk influences with no flashy gimmicks.

The band built a dedicated following through relentless live performances through live shows at venues throughout the Upper Peninsula.

Their sound emphasizes solid musicianship and relatable energetic songs rooted in small town life.
Sore on Sunday remains a classic example of Upper Michigan's independent rock scene making them a must see band built for the stage.
