About the performers
Nite Sprites is a five-piece rock ’n roll outfit from St. Louis. Each member of the group draws from their collective decades of playing everything from chaotic punk to experimental electronic music to produce an homage to their dual-guitar-lead-heavy 70s hard-rock roots. The catchy lick-laden songs are fit for most any classic-rock-obsessed dad or young punk sussing out the shoulders they stand on.
