Piebald: Rock Band in New York

About Piebald

Piebald is an American rock band that began in the Massachusetts hardcore circuit before shifting toward a more melodic strain of emo and indie rock. Emerging from the same Northeast DIY network that fed many 1990s post-hardcore tours, the group later became a steady presence in the Boston-area club scene. In New York City, they appear at Rough Trade NYC, a room that suits their live emphasis on tight transitions and ensemble push-pull rather than stagecraft. Their songs favor direct structure with flashes of punk urgency.
