The Kissing Disease, an indie-rock band of Loyola students, performed for a crowd of over 90 people at brewery Zony Mash in Mid-City.
Four Loyola students started The Kissing Disease last April. Now, the band consists of popular and commercial music junior lead singer Maddie Gartland, popular and commercial music sophomore guitarist Edmund Parry, music industry studies junior bassist Spencer Cody, and popular and commercial music freshman drummer Dylan Bretschnieder.
Planet of the Little Green Men, a psychedelic rock band made up of Loyola students, opened the show.
Projections of galloping horses and dynamic patterns covered the high walls of the venue. Attendees danced, played with arcade machines and a giant tic-tac-toe board, and bought used books and mystery bags from a vending machine.
The Kissing Disease will play at French Quarter Fest in April at Loyola’s new annual stage, called Esplanade in the Shade.
