It’s eerily accurate how a few tracks on the Bridge City Sinners’ new album In The Age Of Doubt sums up the way 71 million Americans have been feeling for the last week.

Bass and banjo-hefty opening track “Break The Chain,” depicts agony and hopelessness in humanity, but also a willingness to fight the adversities and potentially “go down with the ship.” “Doubt” tackles the feeling of society viewing one as the enemy, but also includes a life-saving ending, a reminder that you’re not alone, and things will get better at some point.

The Portland folk-punk outfit was at Jannus Live earlier this year, opening for Frank Turner, but don’t be surprised if Bay area headlining debut starts a mosh pit, no matter how strange a time it seems.

Tickets to see Bridge City Sinners play Crowbar in Ybor City on Friday, Nov. 15 are still available and start at $25.
