On Any Given Night Being In Durham, NC Is The Best Thing In The World

Holidays For Quince Records is a small music label based in Chapel Hill and Durham, which is run by Heather McEntire and Jenks Miller.  They focus on bands from North Carolina and aim to put their “name and effort behind artists [they] believe create movement.”

Pinhook, on West Main Street, hosted a benefit for the worthy label this past Saturday.  Here’s what the night looked like.

John Darnielle from The Mountain Goats played solo.  I think Darnielle summed it up when he said, “On any given night being in Durham, North Carolina is the best thing in the world.”
