SUMMARY:Circle Jerks & Gorilla Biscuits (w/ Negative Approach)
DESCRIPTION:Three legendary punk and hardcore bands — the Circle Jerks\, Gorilla Biscuits and special guest Negative Approach — unite for an epic tour that stops at Empire Live in Albany. With special guests Negative Approach. \nThe Circle Jerks were arguably the first band to inject hardcore punk with the snotty humour that became one of the movement’s defining traits. Cofounded by singer Keith Morris after his departure from Black Flag in 1979\, the iconic outfit fired off a string of speeding anthems like “Live Fast Die Young”\, “Wild in the Streets” and “Stars and Stripes”\, on which they lob one obnoxious joke after another at parents\, society and anything else they deem mainstream and lame. Though The Circle Jerks’ legacy rests upon their initial blast of albums in the ’80s (Group Sex in particular)\, they’ve reunited frequently through the decades. \n### \nGorilla Biscuits is a New York straight edge hardcore punk band on Revelation Records. They formed in 1987. They picked the name under pressure to have a name when Token Entry got them a stage appearance unexpectedly. \nIronically (due to their straight edge status)\, the name came from a big quaalude known as a “gorilla biscuit” which was popular in their neighborhood. The intent was to change the name later\, but it stuck. \nHowever the name was used effectively in one of their early songs which is titled Biscuit Power with the lyrics “Gorilla Biscuits in your fucking head\, one more time and you’ll be dead…”Guitarist Walter Schreifels’ later musical endeavors include Quicksand\, Rival Schools\, and Walking Concert. \nFrontman Civ became the singer for eponymic hardcore punk group CIV and is currently the owner of a New York City tattoo studio called Lotus Tattoos.Gorilla Biscuits disbanded around 1991. They reformed for a benefit show at CBGB’s\, New York\, in 1997 and August 14\,2005. \nThey did a nationwide reunion tour in 2006\, playing almost every song they wrote at every show. In 2007 they did a month-long European tour. \n### \nDetroit’s Negative Approach\, along with Maumee\, OH’s Necros\, were the undisputed champs of Midwestern hardcore in the early to mid-’80s. Legend has it that vocalist John Brannon recruited drummer OP Moore and the guitar/bass team of Rob and Graham McCulloch at a skate park sometime in 1981. Lead by the bald-headed Brannon’s hoarse wail\, the band concocted an extreme sound devoid of frills that alternated between violent and mean. This was first fully documented in 1982 on their self-titled Touch and Go 7″. The band released the more metallic-sounding Tied Down 12″ on Touch and Go in 1983\, but died out in 1985 as Brannon incubated the Birthday Party blues of Laughing Hyenas. Unfortunately lacking the more widespread post-hardcore fame of peers Ian McKaye and Henry Rollins\, Brannon’s Negative Approach has not gotten the later-day due often accorded Minor Threat and Black Flag. Negative Approach was certainly as influential as those two bands\, touching everyone from Poison Idea to Sonic Youth to Los Crudos\, as well as entire generations of hardcore fans in Boston and New York. The band was also as original and extreme as any early-’80s punk outfit — the rhythmic crush created by Moore and the McCulloch brothers continues to be an undeniable steel-toe to the face. Touch and Go compiled the band’s discography as Total Recall in 1992\, an essential listen for anyone who wants to understand hardcore.

SUMMARY:MX Lonely (w/ Halo Bite\, Mall Goth\, PRIZE)
DESCRIPTION:Byrdhouse Records presents MX Lonely with support from Halo Bite\, Mall Goth\, and Prize on Tuesday April 7th at No Fun in Troy\, NY! Doors-7PM \n\n\n\n\nByrdhouse Records presents MX Lonely on their All Monsters Release Tour with local support from Halo Bite\, Mall Goth\, and PRIZE on Tuesday April 7th at No Fun located at 275 River Street\, Troy\, NY. \nDoors-7PM\, Music- 8PM \nAges 18+ (or under with legal guardian) \nMore About MX Lonely: \nMX Lonely formed in 2022 out of the ashes of other projects. Rae Haas (lead vocals/synth) and Jake Harms (vocals/guitar) sought to create a heavier\, more punk rock version of a dual-vocal\, spidery songwriting style they had begun exploring. After a few lineup changes\, the group solidified with Gabriel Garman (bass) and Andrew Rapp (drums)\, who together add a heavy\, propulsive rhythm section to the band. \nSince early 2024 MX Lonely has been touring nationally. The live show aspect of their sound has a huge hand in shaping the dynamics and feeling of their recorded music. They describe themselves as “Loud As F*ck”\, and tow multiple amps to every show.

SUMMARY:Lake Street Dive (w/ Carrtoons)
DESCRIPTION:Lake Street Dive have pushed the possibilities of pop music as a unifying force\, not only through their eclectic sound—a boldly original cross-pollination of soul\, folk\, jazz\, classic pop\, and more—the five-piece’s all-embracing ethos has also made them a beloved live band known for building a potent connection among every crowd. In the making of their GRAMMY-nominated album Good Together\, vocalist Rachael Price\, bassist/background vocalist Bridget Kearney\, drummer/background vocalist Mike Calabrese\, keyboardist/vocalist Akie Bermiss\, and guitarist/background vocalist James Cornelison reinforced the deep sense of purpose behind their output\, often turning their attention to the many factors driving us apart today (e.g.\, unchecked technological growth\, culturally imposed isolation\, the cult of relentless self-optimization). Born from a mindset they refer to as “joyful rebellion\,” Good Together arrives as a body of work both gloriously defiant and primed to inspire unbridled dancing and ecstatic singing-along. \nThe follow-up to 2021’s Obviously\, Good Together finds Lake Street Dive working again with Grammy-winning producer Mike Elizondo (Fiona Apple\, Sheryl Crow\, Gary Clark Jr.). With its sonic landscape encompassing everything from R&B to funk to Brazilian pop\, the album opens on its title track: a left-of-center love song celebrating the thrill of defying expectation and following your heart’s desire. Next\, on “Dance with a Stranger\,” Lake Street Dive once again prove their undeniable gift for crafting feel-good songs with an illuminating message\, simultaneously inducing a carefree euphoria and gently fostering empathy. The wildly cathartic “Walking Uphill” presents gripping meditation on the work of self-repair\, while “Seats at the Bar” puts a sweetly playful twist on the classic love song. And on “Twenty-Five\,” Price shares a stark and lovely ballad steeped in tender reminiscence of a long-ago romance. All throughout Good Together\, Lake Street Dive tap into the palpable camaraderie that’s fueled the band since their formation\, ultimately delivering their most collaborative\, expansive\, and powerfully exuberant work to date.

SUMMARY:Hannibal Buress
DESCRIPTION:From within the bustling heart of the Windy City\, a comedian named Hannibal Buress embarked upon his journey. The year was 2002\, the location\, the Big Muddy Room at Southern Illinois University. Guided by the wisdom of his friend Chidi and sharpened in the fires of Tony Trimm’s “Sunday School sessions\,” young Buress was prepared to take the comedy world by storm. \nIn 2006\, he emerged from the shadows\, performing at Montreal’s ‘Just for Laughs’ New Faces\, an event that led to his first international appearance on “Late Night with Jörgen Raymann” in Holland. From that moment\, he continued to grow\, creating a series of successful stand-up specials including “Animal Furnace\,” “Live From Chicago\,” “Hannibal Takes Edinburgh\,” “Comedy Camisado\,” and “Miami Nights”. \nFate intervened in 2009\, when a last-minute booking on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” led to a meeting with Seth Meyers. This encounter gave him the opportunity to write for the legendary show “Saturday Night Live.” It was there\, my young turtles\, where Buress had one sketch air – a moment he credits to the creativity of his cousin Percy. He cherishes the memory of watching Rihanna uttering his lines in the “Shy Ronnie” sketch. After a season there\, he moved to “30 Rock\,” filling the space left vacant by the departure of Donald Glover. \nIn the realm of film\, Buress has proven his versatility\, showcasing his talents in “Neighbors\,” “Neighbors 2\,” “Baywatch\,” “Daddy’s Home\,” “Spiderman: Homecoming\,” “Spiderman: Far From Home\,” and “Tag.” He also provided a memorable performance as Lincoln the dentist on “Broad City” and lent his voice to animations like “The Secret Life of Pets” and “The Angry Birds Movie.” \nFrom 2009 to 2017\, Buress held court at the “Comedy at the Knitting Factory\,” his charm and wit making an indelible mark on late-night television\, featuring on shows such as “David Letterman\,” “Conan\,” “Stephen Colbert\,” and “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.” \nIn 2022\, he underwent a transformation\, shedding his skin to become Eshu Tune in the world of music. His rhythmic anthems like “Veneers remix” with Danny Brown and Paul Wall\, the lively bowling song “1-3 Pocket\,” and the meticulously crafted “I Lift Weights” echo through the streets. This endeavor was made possible through collaborations with creative minds like Kiefer\, Tru\, Eshu Tune\, Wahsabi Papi\, Kenny Segal\, Eryn Allen Kane\, and Haile Supreme. Through these transformations\, Hannibal Buress remains a true warrior in the world of entertainment.

SUMMARY:A.J. Croce Presents: Croce Plays Croce
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed singer-songwriter\, piano virtuoso\, and multi-instrumentalist A.J. Croce is once again taking his celebrated Croce Plays Croce Tour across the country\, bringing audiences an unforgettable evening of music that bridges generations and celebrates the enduring power of song. \nFrom his earliest performances as a teenager to his critically acclaimed albums and world tours\, A.J. Croce has forged a remarkable career entirely on his own terms. Over the course of three and a half decades and eleven studio albums\, he has become known as an acclaimed songwriter\, multi-instrumentalist\, and electrifying performer\, with more than twenty songs reaching Billboard’s Top 40 charts across multiple genres. Celebrated for his ability to bridge styles and eras with effortless grace\, Croce moves fluidly through American roots\, rock ’n’ roll\, blues\, jazz\, soul\, and world music\, creating a sound that is as distinctive as it is timeless. \nThroughout his remarkable career\, A.J. has shared the stage with an extraordinary list of musical icons — including Ray Charles\, B.B. King\, James Brown\, Willie Nelson\, Lyle Lovett\, and Rod Stewart — each collaboration adding another layer to his deep and diverse musical story. \nSon of the legendary singer-songwriter Jim Croce\, A.J. purposefully waited thirty years to perform his father’s music\, introducing his acclaimed Croce Plays Croce Tour only when he felt there was a meaningful way to honor his musical legacy with depth\, intention\, and musical integrity. Croce Plays Croce showcases that legacy in a way that few concerts can. The show features a moving and energetic blend of Jim Croce’s legendary songs — such as “Operator”\, “You Don’t Mess Around with Jim”\, “Bad Bad Leroy Brown” and “Time in a Bottle” — alongside AJ’s own acclaimed originals. Through stories\, humor\, and remarkable musicianship\, A.J. connects audiences to both his father’s iconic body of work and his own evolution as one of today’s most respected artists. \nThe tour continues to sell out venues nationwide\, earning standing ovations and glowing reviews for its heartfelt storytelling and inspired performances. \nWith over three decades of touring and recording\, A.J. Croce continues to connect audiences across generations — honoring his roots while defining a legacy that is distinctly his own.

SUMMARY:Neon Avenue Plays the Dead and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Born from the depths of the 2020 Pandemic\, Neon Avenue came together for what felt like necessity. With the stalling of the music industry\, a creative outlet was needed for these 5 individuals. What was first a casual get together playing some dead tunes quickly escalated into a singular goal of putting together a live stream. Something special happened during these early sessions and a “one-and-done” livestream turned into something much more. \nIn less than 2 years as a band\, Neon Avenue has made quite a stir in the ever popular (and saturated) Gratefully-inspired tribute scene\, growing quickly to become one of the bigger draws in the Upstate NY capital region Dead scene. The band brings a fresh take on the Grateful music that you know and love while placing an emphasis on improvisation\, unique setlist construction\, deeper cuts into the grateful songbook and a primal energy that they draw from their loyal fans during live performances. With past appearances at the Town of Hoosick Falls concert series\, Long Lake’s “Meat.Beer.Music” music festival\, as well as scheduled appearances at Lake George Steamboat Company’s “Rock the Dock Music Festival”\, “Rockin’ on the River” for the city of Troy\, and numerous headlining shows around the Capital region\, the word has certainly gotten out about this band. Composed of veteran musicians from numerous local groups like Formula 5\, Slipknot! (80’s/90’s Dead tribute)\, Stone Revival Band\, Knot Dead\, Jocamo\, and more\, this combination of players has set out to push the boundaries of the standard Dead tribute. \nThe group of Joe Davis (Formula 5)\, Mike Urbon (Knot Dead)\, Mike Cassels (Stone Revival Band\, Jocamo\, Knot Dead)\, Mike McDonald (Formula 5\, Knot Dead) and Doug Klein (Slipknot\, Robanic\, Knot Dead) were re-inspired playing the music of the Grateful Dead\, Jerry Garcia Band\, Ratdog\, and others. While existing in an endless sea of 1970’s era Grateful Dead tributes\, this group strives to separate itself with a dedication to unique arrangements of setlists and song segues\, utilizing extended improvisation\, playing deeper cuts from all eras of the Dead\, JGB\, and Ratdog songbook. \nWebsite: www.neonavenuedead.com

SUMMARY:The Ominous Seapods
DESCRIPTION:Welcome back the Ominous Seapods to Lark Hall for another great night of music! Doors 7pm/Show 8pm\n\n\n\nOminous Seapods are Max Verna\, Tom Pirozzi\, Brian Mangini and Ted Marotta. They were an integral part of the 90’s Jamband scene who frequently performed with or along side bands such as moe.\, Disco Biscuits and God Street Wine. Although one member\, Dana Monteith\, moved to Australia\, they reformed and are currently playing select dates around the Northeast as a 4 piece often with special guests. Their shows include all the favorites in the Seapod’s original catalog along with a few choice covers and some brand new songs as well. \nOminous Seapods built a dedicated fanbase by touring the nation relentlessly throughout the 1990’s and into the early 2000’s. They played such notable venues as Red Rocks in Colorado\, the Wetlands Preserve in NYC\, and the House of Blues in LA\, Boston and Chicago as well countless large outdoor festivals. They released 3 studio albums and 2 live. Richard Gehr of Spin magazine called their album\, Jet Smooth Ride\, one of the top ten jam band releases of all time. \nTheir music is known for its tight grooves\, intense jams\, catchy hooks and quirky humor. Each live Seapod’s show is a purely unique experience that captures the essence of their touring 90’s years but still evolves as a new and exciting project! \nThe Seapods have played a February show at Lark Hall to packed crowds for the previous two years and can’t wait to do it again in 2025. They will be joined by mandolin and guitar virtuoso\, Josh Himmelsbach and as always will have some surprises in store!

SUMMARY:Matt Griffin - Album Release Show (w/ Jimi Woodl)
DESCRIPTION:Saratoga’s Matt Griffin crafts intimate indie-folk songs—curious\, warm & deeply human with opener Jimi Woodl. \n\n\n\n\nGriff is a project led by Matt Griffin that weaves together the porous edges of DIY indie\, folk\, country\, jazz\, and improvised music into a single\, searching practice. Rooted in collaboration and experimentation the project treats genre as a shared language\, one shaped as much by process and place as by sound. \nThe self-released album Effortless Motion was recorded at home using a hybrid of digital and analog\, resulting in recordings that feel intimate without leaning fully into lo-fi aesthetics or over-polished pop. The project lingers on the texture of everyday life in the United States: work\, aging\, restlessness\, the slow effort of moving forward and the uplifting joy of being a new father. \nBased in Saratoga\, Griffin performs in many area bands\, including Blue Ranger\, Armbruster\, Russel the Leaf\, and The Millstone Rounders\, and continues to situate Griff within a deeply local\, community-driven music ecology. \nMatt continues to practice out of a home studio and works as the Director of Caffè Lena’s School of Music\, facilitating programs for all ages and abilities\, fostering a vibrant community of music lovers. \nJimi Woodl is in his own words\, “a singer songwriter who’s profound lyricism\, dynamic guitar playing and smooth soulful voice make him one of the most exciting internationally ignored musicians of all time. Combining influences from James Taylor and John Prine to craft songs that are so good you’ll ask yourself\, who the f@%* is this guy and why have I never heard of him?” and it is true! He’s played with and produced albums by Kate McConnell\, Girl Blue and a slew of other artists. \nOther projects include his bands One Red Martian and The Blind Pilots (both with his brothers Dan and Joe and childhood friend Daniel DeKalb) and Dark Honey. Their sound was indie/alternative vibes and atmospheric vocals reminiscent of Wolf Alice\, Big Thief and Waxahatchee.  Jimi’s lyrics are introspective\, poetic\, and sometimes sadly ruminating\, but they’re also sweet\, complementing his tender and raw vocals. \nStream this show live at Caffè Lena TV. Livestream available for $5 – 100% of live stream tickets on \nCaffeLenaTV benefit the artists. Subscribe for unlimited live streaming\, two week access to recent shows\, and Caffe Lena’s video archive. \nNote: Caffe Lena does not permit ticket reselling above face value.

SUMMARY:Hasan Hates Ronny / Ronny Hates Hasan
DESCRIPTION:During these divided times\, many people believe that open dialogue and discourse are the only tools to mend a wounded nation. Comedians Hasan Minhaj and Ronny Chieng believe the opposite: Hatred is the answer.  \nThis is not one of those tours where two friends co-headline a show so they can go on vacation together. Ronny and Hasan despise one another. And for one night only\, in 19 cities\, they will air their grievances -onstage\, at the same time – about America\, each other\, and each other’s entire family trees – for a paying audience. \nThe format? A DEBATE TO THE DEATH. Imagine CNN’s Presidential Townhall that’s somehow more demented and with less decorum. This will be a race to the bottom. \nMinhaj and Chieng will face off about America’s most urgent issues: Presidents\, War\, the Economy\, Immigration\, Infrastructure\, Food\, Dating\, Family Values\, and of course\, the impending Race War. This is not a call for peace. It’s a call for pettiness. Are you in? \nHASAN MINHAJ: \nHasan Minhaj is a two-time Peabody Award-Winning comedian best known for his breakout Netflix special HOMECOMING KING and his critically acclaimed\, political satire show PATRIOT ACT WITH HASAN MINHAJ for Netflix which won a Peabody\, an Emmy\, and a Television Academy Honor. His second one-hour comedy special THE KING’S JESTER premiered on Netflix in 2022.  In October 2024\, Hasan released his third comedy special on Netflix\, titled OFF WITH HIS HEAD. On Hasan’s ongoing digital series and podcast\, HASAN MINHAJ DOESN’T KNOW\, he sits down with the biggest names in politics\, culture\, and tech with questions that are as thought provoking as they are absurd. In the debut episode\, Hasan spoke with Senator Elizabeth Warren\, and has since welcomed John M. Chu\, Prince Harry\, JJ Redick\, Method Man\, Bernie Sanders\, and Stacey Abrams\, among many others. \nHasan is the co-founder and chief executive officer of 186K Films that produced the upcoming Netflix feature BEST OF THE BEST that will be released later this year. The film is directed by Lena Khan and stars Maitreyi Ramakrishnan and Priyanka Kedia.  Hasan co-wrote the script with Prashanth Venkataramanujam and stars in the film. Past film credits include Disney’s TRON: ARES\, Sony’s IT ENDS WITH US and NEON’s comedy BABES\, directed by Pamela Adlon\, with Ilana Glazer and Michelle Buteau.  He was a senior correspondent at Comedy Central’s THE DAILY SHOW WITH JON STEWART and headlined the 2017 WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS’ DINNER. \nRONNY CHIENG \nRonny Chieng is an Emmy Award winning stand up comedian\, actor and host on “The Daily Show”. He starred in “Crazy Rich Asians”\, Marvel’s “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings”\, Disney’s “Doogie Kamealoha\, M.D.”\, NBC’s “Young Rock”\, “M3GAN” and Hulu’s “Interior Chinatown” and “King of the Hill”. He has three stand up comedy specials on Netflix including the recently released “Ronny Chieng – Love to Hate It” which was the New York Times 2024 Comedy Special of the Year. He will next be seen in the upcoming Peacock series “The Miniature Wife”.

SUMMARY:I Don't Know How But They Found Me
DESCRIPTION:I Don’t Know How But They Found Me (iDKHOW) is the professional moniker of singer/songwriter Dallon Weekes. Formerly a contributing creative member and bassist for Panic! at the Disco\, He also fronted Salt Lake City cult favorite indie band The Brobecks\, where he honed his signature blend of retro-inspired alt rock and witty\, introspective lyricism. As a multi-instrumentalist and producer\, Weekes draws from a variety of influences\, blending elements of 70s new wave\, glam\, 90s Brit-pop\, and indie garage rock into his music. \niDKHOW formed secretly in 2016\, and quickly gained a cult following despite Weekes spending it’s first year denying the project even existed. With his theatrical aesthetics\, infectiously sharp songwriting and charismatic stage presence\, iDKHOW has earned not only a Certified Gold Record with the independently produced “Choke” and a #1 Alternative single with “Leave Me Alone\,” but has also received critical acclaim as well as commercial success\, solidifying Weekes’ place in the alternative music scene and beyond.
