Troy Gregory Releases "Xaviera" at Ghost Light

Jett Plastic Recordings has been putting out some awesome records over the past few years, from both local and national acts. Their releases have included everyone from Detroit's own The ILL Itches to Macaulay Culkin's band The Pizza Underground. We recently had the chance to catch up with Jett Plastic owner and founder Jarrett Koral on our podcast, where he talked about the label's past and upcoming releases. He told us that 2018 would be the biggest year yet for Jett Plastic, with a ton of releases expected.

One of those big releases is Troy Gregory's first vinyl record Xaviera. The album will actually be a double album, which you can get a little preview of here. Troy Gregory has been a big part of the Detroit music scene for years now, with involvement in other projects like The Witches, Prong, and The Dirtbombs. For his current solo project, Gregory performs with his band, Super Birthday, who will be performing with him this weekend at the release show. Also performing at the release show are The Idiot Kids and Cosmic Light Shapes. It's all happening this Saturday night at Ghost Light in Hamtramck.

Cover for Saturday's release show is $7 or if you wear a full cosplay costume to the show, cover will only be $4. You also have a chance to get into the show for free if you email us at hipindetroit@gmail.com with #troy in the subject line. We will draw one lucky winner on Saturday morning and they will get in the door that night with a friend for free.

Doors are set to open at 7 p.m. on Saturday and the music will start at 9. 18+ are welcome.
