Eli “Paperboy” Reed – (Le) Poisson Rouge (NYC)


The Brooklyn soul singer, with his horn-heavy live band, tours the US following the release of his exuberant new album, 99 Cent Dreams (Yep Roc).

Mogli

Mogli – Rough Trade (Brooklyn, NY)


Berlin’s DIY ambassador makes her “Mirrors” Tour – the first US tour of her career — a spiritual musical experience with the pulsating synths and somber electro-pop of her melancholic Patience EP. Like the EP, Mogli’s live performance is a perspective-shifting affair.

Dan Tepfer – Bar Bayeux (Brooklyn, NY)


“One of the moment’s most adventurous and relevant musicians” (New York Magazine) explores the possibilities of real-time VR with his new interactive performance.

The projections take the sonic data from his Disklavier piano to represent foundational aspects of each piece – pitch, dynamics, rhythm, harmony, and more – in both two dimensions and virtual reality.

Chaos Chaos – Market Hotel (Brooklyn, NY)


Asya and Chloe Saavedra’s live show is as glossy, brainy, and infectious as its new single, “Armed And Dangerous.” The sister duo – playing drums and synth respectively – are joined by a full band for these select dates.

Rolling Stone recently praised Jamison’s “dreamy and downy soft, laced with orchestral strings and a Sufjan Stevens-worthy vocal" folk arrangements, which now will be fleshed out on stage with a full band.
