On the 1st of December, Buffalo groove-rock favorites Aqueous stopped by Rough Trade NYC in Brooklyn, NY as part of their ongoing fall tour. The two-set show allowed for the quartet to expand on some of their originals, insert new surprises, and weave their way through a full evening of rock and roll. With teases of Phish, Zelda, Peanuts, Jimi Hendrix, and the Grateful Dead peppered throughout the show, and a full execution of Elton John‘s tough-to-sing “Bennie and the Jets”, Aqueous impressed fans old and new with their unique ability to shred old school favorites with their new school attitude.
