THIS WEEK

🪩 bad tuner & Gilligan Moss

Tonight @ Holocene (9PM)

bad tuner and Gilligan Moss are teaming up for a night of genre-blurring grooves and serotonin-soaked sets. House, disco, synth-pop - whatever it is, it’s warm, weird, and very danceable.

Tomorrow @ Newmark Theatre (7:30PM)

The Beatles and The Rolling Stones go head-to-head in a rock’n’roll battle royale, tribute-style. Abbey Road and Jumping Jack Flash face off in a “shootout of the hits” that settles nothing… but absolutely rips.

📣 Caamp

Saturday @ Hayden Homes Amphitheater (6:30PM)

Caamp brings their campfire croon and rustbelt romance to the stage with banjos, boots, and feelings you forgot you had.

🎤 MC Magic, Baby Bash, Lil Rob Live

Saturday @ Crystal Ballroom (8PM)

MC Magic, Baby Bash, and Lil Rob are bringing back that cruising-down-the-boulevard energy. Get ready for slow jams, love songs, and West Coast heat all night long.

🤘 Ragana

Saturday @ Mississippi Studios (9PM)

Ragana blends black metal fury with doom-laced beauty, channeling grief, rage, and resistance into something sacred.
