Brooklyn Indie Rockers "Dirty on Purpose" bring their own brand of gooey melodic rock to the Paradox tonight. The dirtiness is no accident, and their brand new album "Hallelujah Sirens" could easily be your soundtrack to the summer. Their refreshing mix of guitars, vocals, and reverb drive you down memorable roads; but the sound is all their own. We love the pairing with "Say Hi To Your Mom" – a band that KEXP's own Kevin Cole turned us onto a long time ago. They sing about Robots and Snowcones. We've always wanted our own Robot - He could go get us Snowcones. A cool mid-week show. We're curious to see how this lineup will shake out. Both bands play short live sets on KEXP before their evening show so you can catch a preview.

Remember the Reno 911 episode where the cops give a classroom demonstration on how to shoot someone without hitting a bunch of bystanders? That was hilarious, right? Because it was on TV.

A member of the Grey's Harbour drug task force would, though.
