If you think of The Gin Blossoms as the primary legacy of Valley music, you’re invited to hop into the Delorean that is “The Grid: Music Edition” exhibition.
The Trunk Space, hosts of this sweet show, posed this simple question to The Shizz online local music community: “What’s the oldest Phoenix band you can remember?” The crowd-sourced outpouring necessitated a celebration of the roots of the local music scene and the result is a timeline and family tree of band photos, flyers, and ephemera. Due to time and space constraints, “The Grid” only goes back to 1990, but expect Fatigo, The Format, Minibosses, The Sun City Girls, and Vin Fiz, among other Phoenix favorites, to be represented.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
