JEFFREY FOUCAULT
Friday 7.24.26 - 7:00pm - Tickets
In two decades on the road Jeffrey Foucault has become one of the most distinctive voices in American music, refining a sound instantly recognizable for its simplicity and emotional power. With a string of critically acclaimed studio albums – “Stark, literate songs that are as wide open as the landscape of his native Midwest” (The New Yorker), "Beat-up troubadour folk whittled to dolorous perfection” (Uncut), “Songwriting Brilliance,” (Irish Times) – he’s built a brick-and-mortar international touring career and a devoted following, one that includes luminaries like Van Dyke Parks, Greil Marcus, and Don Henley.
In September of 2024 Jeffrey Foucault will release THE UNIVERSAL FIRE(Fluff & Gravy, 9/6/24), his first album of entirely new material since 2018. As eries of high-voltage performances cut live in one room, the album is both a working wake – Foucault lost his best friend and drummer Billy Conway, to cancer in 2021 – and a meditation on the nature of beauty, artifact, and loss.
Augmenting Foucault's all-star band with members of Calexico and Bon Iver(drummer John Convertino and producer/saxophonist Mike Lewis) THE UNIVERSAL FIRE sets Conway’s death against the massive 2008 fire at the Universal Studios lot in California that destroyed the master recordings of some of our bedrock American music, to interrogate ideas about mortality, legacy, meaning, and calling.

REVERSAL OF MAN,
NØMAN, BLOSSOM,
& CORRUPT WORLD
Sunday 8.2.26 - 7:30 pm - Tickets
From Tampa, Florida, Reversal of Man started in 1995, a black sheep born from a tumultuous Florida punk scene. Over the course of six years, relentless touring, and countless iconic releases, the band left a legacy with their chaotic, cathartic and iconoclastic brand of DIY hardcore that has inspired a whole new generation of bands in the years since.
Washington D.C.’s NØ MAN is a necessary and much-needed voice in modern hardcore. Formed in 2017, the four-piece punk band has been alchemizing the personal and the political from the jump. Composed of members from Majority Rule, the band’s current aims go hand-in-hand with their past, sonically and thematically.
Their upcoming album Glitter and Spit is the band’s third full-length LP, solidifying their furious hardcore into a weapon of a record. Album opener “Eat My Twin” twists and refracts a mid-tempo riff into a sonic hammer, cracking open the record’s heaviness to come. Singer Maha Shami has fully come into her own as a frontperson, snarling out the most vicious vocals of her career on “Poison Darts.”
As the daughter of refugees, returning home to Palestine included witnessing first-hand the casual atrocities inflicted on her family. Though written before the current conflict’s boiling point, Glitter and Spit synthesizes the 70+ years of systemic violence carried out against Palestine and her own lived experiences. From school teachers and classmates telling her Palestine doesn’t exist, to being humiliated by soldiers at checkpoints when she visited her family, these many moments fuel the album’s lifeblood, coalescing on “Can’t Kill Us All.”
“They want to silence us,” Shami said at a recent benefit show in D.C. “We will be louder. We aren’t fucking going anywhere. Because Palestine will never die.” Glitter and Spit is a much-needed fire of an album, fueled by the anxieties and anger of the now, erupting in a cathartic inferno.
The band’s members Matt Michel (guitar/vocals), Pat Broderick (drums) and Kevin Lamiell (Bass) helped lay the foundation for hardcore and screamo in Majority Rule from 1996 to 2004. Alongside the band, vocalist Maha Shami has been a longtime friend, giving a “cameo” guest vocal performance on Majority Rule’s “Packaged Poison” in 2004. When Majority Rule reunited in 2017 to perform multiple benefit shows, it ignited a desire to keep creating, and no one was better equipped to step in as front person than Shami.
Their energy and spirit have brought them together on tour with bands like Portrayal of Guilt, Darkest Hour, FAIM, Entry and more. In 2023 they collaborated with former tourmates and fellow iconoclasts The HIRS Collective on the song “Sweet Like Candy.” They’ve also contributed to Secret Voice’s (the label of Touche Amore frontman Jeremy Bolm) compilation Balladeers, Redefined.

Their music is ferocious and tender, a crooked vessel for pain, nostalgia, empowerment and vindication, filtered through a dirty sieve. They are “trash kittens,” adorable and yet broken, incomplete, dirty.

RUNNNER
w/ pleasure systems
Friday 8.28.26 - 7:00pm - Tickets
Runnner’s sophomore full-length, A Welcome Kind of Weakness, emerged from a simultaneous tear in songwriter Noah Weinman’s body and life. Written during the months spent bedridden and healing from a torn Achilles and the drastic upheaval of a breakup, the 11 songs on this record are Weinman’s most bracing, inviting the perceived vulnerability of the album’s title willingly. But at the same time, these songs are Runnner’s most present, defiant, and self-assured, a reminder of the resolve that can come from gracefully accepting submission.
Longtime fans of Weinman’s likely fell for his signature homespun indie rock, recorded almost exclusively in bedrooms and home studios, where his poignant and self-deprecating lyrics float over beds of banjos, guitars, and reverberant horns crescendoing to cathartic peaks. But on A Welcome Kind of Weakness, Weinman soars for the first time in high fidelity. Runnner’s first studio record, it recalls the larger-than-life highs of the early aughts rock that Weinman grew up on, bands like Coldplay, Radiohead, and Snow Patrol with their pristine vocal presence, scintillating guitar riffs, and astral synth sparkle. This is rock music in its most delicious form, music that gave Weinman something to look forward to when he could finally play live again.
But as high as the sonic highs may be on A Welcome Kind of Weakness, we also see Weinman struggling gracefully with the questions that emerge from moments of physical and emotional undoing. As he sings about spackling holes in the house he shared with his ex and reckoning with a long span of physical futility, we’re reminded, too, of all the spectrums of experience we endure. We are all perpetually pulled between poles—weakness/resolve, nostalgia/presence, powerlessness/control—but it takes a certain bravery to sit in the murky middle long enough to write about it. And in his willingness to bear witness to that transitory space, Weinman seems to reassure us: You may think you won’t run again, but, given time, you might.

JOE KAPLOW
Saturday 9.19.26 - 8:00pm - Tickets
Before I started my career I had a choice: to take over my parent's thoroughbred farm in New Jersey or pursue music full time in California and relinquish the farm to sale. I still wonder what life would have looked like had I stayed, but who can resist the gold rush? Besides, I plan to get back there one day on another farm with some other red barn.
My music comes from life’s moments -- smelling 4 acres of freshly cut grass, watching the steam from a horse's breath in the early morning, finally holding the neck of my guitar after holding bridles and worn wooden handles all day. 4000 acres of freshly burnt wildfire, watching the steam from the Pacific Ocean's breath in the early morning, finally holding the neck of my guitar after clutching the worn steering wheel of the tour van all day.
Now my reality is in Bonny Doon, CA, where mountains meet the sea. I am in my recording studio, aptly named Hippie Cowboy, every day. Slow and steady; keep it fun, stay engaged. All for the moment when the song finally sounds right. My dad passed away a couple years ago -- his bullwhip is on the wall, his Harley is in the driveway. He visits me in dreams, and oh, the moment I wake up! Sometimes I write for him. Sometimes for my mom, who I hope will move out to California soon. Maybe she could volunteer at an equestrian center...
The Dream eaters
Saturday 9.19.26 - 8:00pm - Tickets
Since 2015, The Dream Eaters have evolved from a dream-pop band into a full-on video art project with an extensive catalogue of weird and darkly humorous music videos accompanying their catchy pop songs. The duo began working together after Elizabeth LeBaron, originally from Calgary, and Jake Zavracky, originally from Boston, met while bartending in Brooklyn’s Gowanus neighborhood.
They released several EPs before their full-length albums We Are A Curse (2017) and Pagan Love (2018), touring frequently across the Eastern U.S. and Canada. In 2019, they began developing the web series The Dream Eating Freakshow — sort of like a children's show for Gen Xers and elder millennials — which launched in 2020. Since then, alongside drummer/dancer/weird guy Steve Fugitt, they’ve released hundreds of bizarre, darkly comedic videos on social media, growing a devoted cult fanbase. In 2025 they released 3 EPs and their new album Year End Report. The band continues to tour extensively across the U.S. and Canada.

ORA COGAN
Monday 9.28.26 - 7:30pm - Tickets
Ora Cogan’s music is alchemical: part instinct, part ritual, and always conjured from the edges where life feels sharpest. With Hard Hearted Woman, she mixes haunted folk, psych rock, and a shadowy strain of country, building a realm where catharsis feels lush, mysterious and vital. Shaken by the tenor of modern life, Cogan pulled in a circle of kindred musicians and made a
record shaped by someone who has looked into the abyss and decided, again and again, to choose curiosity.
Hard Hearted Woman grew out of a blur of cold-water plunges, long river swims, late-night ruminations with friends on art and politics, and long drives through the rural Lillooet landscape to visit her godmother. Alongside her band and guests from both the country and experimental worlds, she recorded with David Parry (Loving) at Dream Club in Victoria, B.C., as well as in her studio in Nanaimo, and remotely with Tom Deis. The result glows like something pulled from smoke and seawater — intimate, shimmering, and carved with wit as much as grief. It’s a swirling, jewel-toned ode to all the angels and the demons.
A work of devotion to mystery, to community, and to the strange power of making art in a fractured world, Hard Hearted Woman is a record about hardness and resilience; it’s the shell we grow so our most human, breakable selves can survive. Hard Hearted Woman is for anyone trying to stay open, even when the world makes that feel impossible.
BASIC
Tuesday 10.6.26 - 7:00pm - Tickets
Working with guitars, drum machine, sampler, self-built electronics, and all manner of percussion, BASIC synthesize the vast influences and distinct histories of the players, producing a boundary-less, rhythm-forward amalgam of art rock, trance jazz, collective improvisation, and humming electronics on their new eponymous full-length for No Quarter, released in June 2026.
Philadelphia’s Chris Forsyth, known for his lyrical guitar compositions and mercurial improvisations as leader of the Solar Motel Band, founded BASIC in 2022 naming the project in homage to the 1984 Robert Quine/Fred Maher album “Basic,” yes, but also to indicate a desire to get down to fundamentals rhythmically and musically. Shortly thereafter, fellow Philly denizen Mikel Patrick Avery, whose subtle and propulsive drumming has provided the pulse for Natural Information Society, Marshall Allen’s Ghost Horizons, and Rob Mazurek’s Exploding Star Orchestra (amongst other projects), joined, bringing his unique combination of programed beats and acoustic percussion - a single drum with a metallic bell affixed and a variety of hand percussion run through a self-devised barrage of electronic processors and tonal filters (many controlled in real-time with touch pads) - to BASIC. Chicago stalwart Douglas McCombs came on board in late 2024 to tour their debut record “This Is BASIC,” thereby solidifying the lineup and expanding the group’s sound. As often heard in his work with Tortoise and Brokeback, McCombs’ playing in BASIC combines a mastery of musical negative space with memorable lines on Fender Bass VI, a six-string instrument with a distinctive twang tuned an octave below a standard guitar, allowing McCombs to function as both bassist and guitarist.
“Basic” inhales all the music that modernity's global connectivity (our blessing and our curse) allows us, tapping Tuareg rhythms here, angular guitar heroics there, scratchy funk, dubby low end shudder and Highlife-y rhythmic percolation everywhere. There's a fresh, intoxicating looseness to BASIC that further develops the great nocturnal guitar-nerd explorations of their debut LP, best exemplified by the ethereal flute & mutating samples of ""Index of Memories,"" the multifaceted interplay between drum loops and overdubbed acoustic guitar on ""Premonition,"" and the keening delay feedback filling up cracks throughout. Adding dimension and texture, BASIC is joined on four tracks by the young Philly double bassist (and frequent collaborator of Forsyth’s and Avery’s) John Moran, known for his work in Victor Vieira-Branco’s Bark Culture and the Daniel Villareal Trio.
BASIC’s “Basic” concept is groove-based, full of space and sonic fields both evocatively ancient and bracingly contemporary. It is a truly collective product, balancing individual expression with surrender to the group. On “Basic” the result is entrancing and, if not “non-idiomatic” then something approaching pan-idiomatic.
Most exciting, perhaps, is the potential for a new renaissance of electro-acoustic groove music that fuses non-Western rhythmic boil with acid-psych moves and funky harmolodics that electrify both the body and the deepest neural pathways, and plays with the boundaries between art, technology and boogie.
MARTY O'REILLY
Saturday 11.14.26 - 7:00pm - Tickets
Marty O’Reilly’s music feels timeless, like an old story told in a new way. His raw, soulful voice and gritty guitar playing form the foundation of a sound rooted in Americana.

RACECOURSE
Wednesday 11.18.26 - 8:00pm - Tickets
Squished between shifts at the carwash, physics papers, and soccer games, Racecourse was formed in the winter of 2022. The indie rock quintet (Reya Langen, Graeme Stage, Jackson Pruett, Ben Chung, and Joaquin Jorgenson) huddled together through muddy Santa Cruz winters in Jackson’s bedroom and Graeme’s garage. Working with tape machines and laptops, they completed their debut record, July, December, in a cabin by the Yuba River in the winter of 2025. Now living in New York, Racecourse moves forward.
