ilyAIMY upDates 8/4 - online tonight, Connecticut this weekend - then DC? MD? VA! View online
ilyAIMY Dangerous Music for Dangerous Times

Tonight we're in the Lair, Friday, Saturday and Sunday we're meandering 'round Connecticut... and by Monday we're home again.

Touring just ain't what it used to be.

August is quite busy. We're playing in a couple of unusual formats (a Rowan, Heather, Kristen show?! - a rob and Rowan gig?!? - FIVE PIECE ilyAIMY in Connecticut?!?!) and we're trying to make the best of the world, as we all are, by making smart decisions and continuing our virtual shows as well. 

We Live in Interesting Times.

If you’ve got some digital currency burning holes in your digital pockets, we’ve got physical merch at ilyaimy.square.site and digital merch at ilyaimy.bandcamp.com – and of course we’ll happily accept donations at paypal.me/ilyaimy and Venmo @ilytips. We even have an Amazon wishlist covering things we use regularly or could regularly use – whether you’re thinking “gosh, they deserve a new audio interface and / or action figures and some socks!”.

upComing and inComing:

Keeping ourselves sane, sort-of employed – and most importantly – keeping us from Loving and Missing YOU too much – ilyAIMY’s Live from the Lair marches into 2021. Join us every Wednesday night at 7pm ET on Facebook, YouTube and Twitch.


Putnam - 91 Main St

Due to COVID concerns we want to stress that we’ve got two OUTDOOR gigs in Connecticut as well – Saturday just down the hill at the Particle Accelerator Festival, and Sunday in New Hartford, CT. The VSC show is INDOORS and though there’s plenty of space and we welcome masking…


5-piece ilyAIMY (drums and drums and also drums?) at Particle Accelerator 15, the annual suicide prevention festival thrown in honour of Jack Young Jr. We’ve played a number of these festivals, have missed more than we’d like, and are just so excited to be a ROCK BAND for them this…


With our old friend Shawn Taylor kicking off the night, we’re so grateful to Chris Malik for making room in his yard for a rare northern appearance of 4-piece ilyAIMY! New Hartford, CT. RSVP required! (seats limited, free download for RSVPing AND a recording of the show!) “ilyAIMY (i love…


Washington - 3407 Connecticut Ave NW

Due to COVID concerns we’re PROBABLY going to be postponing this gig. UpDates as they become available… PJ wants us. PJ gets us. Full band on Friday the 13th. I don’t know about you, but that’s usually a LUCKY night for us! Fat Pete’s (3407 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington, DC…


Rockville - 12227 Wilkins Ave

So grateful to be returning to 7 Locks. Food truck, great drinks, and us! 7 Locks Brewing (12227 Wilkins Ave. Rockville, MD 20852 | 7.30pm) is just one of those places where the owner talks about making beer like we talk about playing music. I like being around passionate people.…


Westminster - 62 West Main St

A new to us cafe that built a special little music shack out back! And it’s BEAUTIFUL! Huzzah! American Ice Co. Cafe (62 W. Main St., Westminster MD 21157 | 6-9pm). Delicious sandwiches, coffee and ice cream. And ice cream IN the coffee. And vice versa. And you could probably…


Frederick - 1781 N Market St,

It seems like Frederick, MD did very little over pandemic but create new-to-us breweries and distilleries – and that those breweries and distilleries did little but create wondrous concoctions and watch ilyAIMY Livestreams, dreaming of a day when they could invite us in… or at least TO (since “indoors” ain’t…


Mt Airy - 13601 Glissans Mill Rd

Hostile and Ruin rides again. What’s that you say? That’s the Rowan and rob show, named by an (un?)fortunate mis-hearing of our names at a loud bar! Red Shedman Brewing at Linganore WInery (13601 Glissans Mill Rd, Mt Airy, MD) shan’t know what hit them.


Alexandria - 515 Mt Vernon Ave,

Well, now that we’ve been there TWICE we can officially talk MORE about how this is a freakin’ beautiful oasis in the midst of Alexandria. We’re secluded beneath foliage and ferns and fed the finest of foods. It was one BILLION degrees that first night and we STILL had an…


Wandering and Wondering:

As COVID comes roaring back to Life I'm grateful that most of our upcoming shows are outdoors - though there are two immediate exceptions:

This Friday night we'll be Live at Victoria Station Cafe. We'll be webcasting the evening as well (Facebook, YouTube, Twitch) so if you're not feeling 100% please stay home and watch from a distance. 

NEXT Friday we're hoping to be performing at Fat Pete's in DC, but this is looking to be increasingly unlikely. We'll make the call this coming weekend, but since COVID is fueled by many things, including stupidity, we would rather not feed it and will mostly likely be postponing this show.
