Indie-rock band Never Ending Fall supports Fayetteville’s own Sawyer Hill on a tour from Oklahoma to Arkansas, promising a flood of energy to their ever-expanding fan base.
Friends and bandmates since a fated talent show performance in the fourth grade, the Maryland natives moved to Los Angeles to make music, but in a twist of events, scored a hit TikTok series with ‘Can it Kirkland’ where they compare name brand liquor and Costco’s Kirkland Signature brand. After becoming beloved figures of the internet, a whole new audience was tuned into their music.
Over the last few months, they’ve been rolling out the singles from their upcoming summer album “American Disco” (Aug. 9), the latest of which is “Slow Motion.”
Never Ending Fall warms up for Hill and company at 9 p.m. Oct. 2 at George’s Majestic Lounge in Fayetteville. Tickets are $15 in advance and $18 at the door. Ted Hammig and the Campaign also perform.
