Despite their ominous name, Murder by Death is a band that is comprised of literary songwriters that is matched by a specific brand of anthem-riding ballads and orchestral indie rock.

Murder by Death formed in 2001. The band has developed a 10+ year career founded on a bedrock of five full-length albums and tireless D.I.Y. touring. However, more importantly, they have a dedicated, cult-like fan-base. Since the beginning, their audience has blossomed due in part to extended tours alongside similarly hardworking musicians such as Against Me!, The Gaslight Anthem, Lucero, The Devil Makes Three.

Murder by Death will be performing this Friday, May 10th, at The Ottobar in Baltimore. You can pick up tickets for the show, here. Doors are at 8 pm! Hope to see you there and check out the link below to have a listen to what you’ll hear at the show!
