JUST ANNOUNCED

• The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus just announced a show at Dante’s on October 10, bringing back the post-hardcore anthems that made your teenage heart ache.

• Celeste Barber just announced a show at Newmark Theatre, serving up brutally funny takes on celebrity culture, internet nonsense, and everyday chaos. Instagram’s queen of comedy is even sharper on stage.

• Bassvictim is serving chest-rattling drops and bass so heavy it feels like a natural disaster. Prepare for dark, grimy, and built for the late-night floor stompers at Holocene on November 3.

• Tanael Joachim brings sharp, thoughtful comedy with a side of Haitian-American perspective and New York grit. Get tickets to the Alien Everywhere Tour at The Mission Theater.
