Big Something will reach into the archives for the Transmissions streaming series, the band announced. The six-week run of free archival webcasts will highlight the genre-fluid quintet’s 2021 Halloween and New Year’s Eve runs.
Set to begin tonight, February 24th, the band will air one show per month through July. All of the selected concerts occurred in the band’s home state of North Carolina, with Transmissions kicking off with Big Something’s three-set New Year’s Eve show at Raleigh’s Lincoln Theatre. The cover-filled performance—one of few ticketed concerts to occur on December 31st, 2021—saw tributes to Mac Miller, Billy Strings, Turkuaz, George Harrison, and many more.
