While fans thrash together, lead singer and guitarist, Tyler Ross plays a solo from the song, ‘Flush’ from Laredo Two’s new EP ‘Poison’. Debuting the band’s three new songs released Aug. 27, fans from all over the DFW area united together in Flower Mound for the band’s biggest show yet at Thrash Fest Aug. 24. The trio will be playing at DV8 in Plano, Tx Dec. 11. “My favorite part of Laredo Two’s shows is the unity within the audience,” photographer Gracie Archibeque said. “It truly feels like a big family”.
