Indie pop crew Guards are playing a hometown show as part of the Downtown Music Festival at Bowery Ballroom tonight (5/10) with Palma Violets and The Orwells (tickets), and they’ve just announced that they’ll play another one next month. The newly-added show happens on June 18 at Brooklyn Bowl, and it’s part of that venue’s Local x Local series, which means it’s totally free as long as you RSVP.

The band have a number of other dates announced too. All of those are listed, along with the video for “Ready to Go” from their debut LP, below…
