"Them Boys Ain't Right" Tour with ADAM, Brzowski & Mo Niklz kicks off July 24th

The "Them Boys Ain't Right" tour begins Tuesday, July 24th in Boston! ADAM (of Uncommon Records) will be touring with fellow progsters, Brzowski (Milled Pavement) and Mo Niklz. They'll be rocking five stages in five nights that will take them from Boston through Brooklyn; Portland, Maine; Newport, R.I.; and Bridgeport, Conn. for a Northeast tour. It will also see them sharing the stage with Open Mike Eagle, Billy Woods (for his first NYC show since the criticaly acclaimed "History Will Absolve Me" lp dropped), MegaRan and other special guests.

This tour unites two unique and unconventional vocalists, ADAM and Brzowski. Neither artist has ever been anything but self-made in their respective indie label efforts, marching to the off-beat drummer in their heads. This pairing is like putting out a fire with gasoline, as both will undoubtedly be raging against the machine of what can often be an elitist underground hip-hop scene--ideas that are represented on their joint track released just prior to this tour. The glue on this trip will be the addition of Mo Niklz on the wheels for both artists, as well as his own must-see visual turntablist set where Mo actually cuts up film and television on screen alongside the music.

The "Them Boys Ain't Right" tour is coalesced with a joint track between the three artists (Produced by Nasa). The track, Them Boys Ain't Right, is FREE. This single (with instrumental) includes a mixtape from Mo Niklz featuring all the artists that the trio will be rocking with somewhere along this journey.

The entire project is FREE, but any donations leading up to or during this Northeast swing will be used to support the tour.

The dates are as follows:
July 24th @ O'Briens in Boston, MA
July 25th @ Cameo Lounge in Brooklyn, NY
July 26th @ Empire in Portland, ME
July 27th @ Billy Goode's in Newport RI
July 28th @ The Acoustic Cafe in Bridgeport, CT
