The Afghan Whigs<\/strong> are set to perform at the 9:30 Club<\/strong> in Washington DC on September 14th, 2022<\/strong>. This legendary band from Cincinnati, Ohio, is no stranger to the 9:30 Club, having performed at our beloved venue nine times before. The band’s long history with the venue spans several decades. While they last performed at the 9:30 Club on September 9th, 2017, the first time they performed was at the original location at 930 F Street NW all the way back on August 13th, 1992.<\/p>\n

It has been five years since their last appearance at the 9:30 Club, and the Whigs come to Washington, DC, supporting their latest and ninth studio album, How Do You Burn?<\/em> This album is their first new music since 2017’s In Spades<\/em> and their first new music since the passing of Whigs guitarist Dave Rosser<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Afghan Whigs – How Do You Burn?<\/em> (Released September 9, 2022)<\/p>\n

Since their inception in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1986, The Afghan Whigs have never played by the rules of convention. Against the plaid-and-grunge-shaded backdrop of the early-to-mid-’90s, the Whigs stood apart from their contemporaries for their love of R&B, soul, and hard-raging rock. All these years later, they still sound as good as ever with Greg <\/strong>Dulli’s<\/strong> infatigable voice, as he dives into R&B influences shimmering in Hammond B-3 organ, never letting the dark and gritty side go, and going full stadium-ready anthems.<\/p>\n

Have you listened to the released tracks off of How Do You Burn?<\/em> Listen to that opening car-chase of “I’ll Make You See God”, on-your-knees redemptive soul-penetrating “Please, Baby Please”, stadium-ready echo epic “A Line Of Shots”, tortured lovers on “Domino + Jimmy”, to an epic finale of “In Flames.”  This is an album we really cannot wait to listen to when the full album is released on September 9th.<\/p>\n

We are really looking forward to seeing The Afgan Whigs perform to a small audience of 1,200 fans at the 9:30 Club on September 14th only a few days after their latest album release.<\/p>\n
