Remo Drive & Remember Sports in Hamden

Remo Drive is an American indie-rock and emo band formed in Bloomington, Minnesota, in 2013 by brothers Erik and Stephen Paulson. They became known through the 2017 debut album Greatest Hits, particularly “Yer Killin’ Me” and “Art School,” and later released Natural, Everyday Degradation, A Portrait of an Ugly Man and Mercy. In 2017, Remo Drive joined The Front Bottoms for dates on the Going Grey tour, bringing material from Greatest Hits to clubs and theatres across North America. Their subsequent headline runs have used a full-band setup led by Erik Paulson on guitar and vocals and Stephen Paulson on drums.

Remember Sports is an American indie-rock band formed by students at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio, and later based in Philadelphia. Originally billed as Sports, the group introduced its brisk, guitar-led songwriting on Sunchokes and All of Something. It adopted the name Remember Sports before releasing Slow Buzz, followed by Like a Stone; songs including “Clean Jeans,” “Get Bummed Out” and “You Are the Right One” remain central to its catalogue. The band toured DIY spaces and clubs behind Sunchokes and All of Something, then returned to the road under its new name for the Slow Buzz and Like a Stone periods. Its concert history has grown through headline club dates and support tours. Remember Sports performs as a full guitar band, drawing its sets from each phase of the catalogue. The songs are led by the voice and guitar of Carmen Perry.
