CONCERT REVIEW: Khemmis, Conjurer, and Wake at the Sanctuary
Hamtramck is a community of creatives that is nestled right up against the city of Detroit. This popular burb is home to some of Motor City’s favorite petite-sized concert halls. The Sanctuary is particularly popular for its inexhaustible source for live entertainment that caters to everything from Punk Rock to Black Metal.

Expectations that have, staggeringly, been surpassed.Continue reading
