Must See Shows (10/29/25-11/4/25)
Thursday, October 30th @ 8pm
Fruit Bats (solo) @ Asbury Hall
Eric D. Johnson, lead mind behind indie-folk act Fruit Bats, makes a stop at our favorite Delaware Ave church to play some songs in support of the project’s latest album, Baby Man. The band has been cranking out quality work since its inception in the late 90s, with temporary retirements and various breaks to work on other projects, including label stints at Sub Pop and Merge. Fans of Vetiver, M. Ward, or The Shins would be into Fruit Bats’ gentle, warm, and genre-bending delivery. Tickets are $35.
Saturday, November 1st @ 7pm
Hot Mulligan @ Buffalo Riverworks
Sometimes we make a goof and schedule writing about a show that’s already sold out. So, apologies about this. Pop punk hotshots, Hot Mulligan is coming to Buffalo Riverworks on Saturday and unless you have a ticket, you can’t go (sorry). The band is touring in support of their new full-length The Sound a Body Makes When It’s Still and the capacity at Buffalo Riverworks are excited to see the new album played live.
Also not to be overlooked are opening sets from Albany punk rockers Drug Church, Canadian emos Arm’s Length, and melodic post-hardcore band Anxious. I hope you got a ticket already.
Monday, November 3rd @ 7pm
Sydney Sprague @ Rec Room
Phoenix-based singer/songwriter Sydney Sprague starts the work week off right by bringing her alt-pop stylings to Chippewa St. Sprague made waves iwth her first album maybe I will see you at the end of the world which was positively received on the internet among the indie elite. Songwriting-wise, Sprague’s lyrics are witty and delve into the hyper internet-influenced oversharing and observational story telling. Sprague is not afraid to share it all. Fans of Bad Bad Hats, Snail Mail, and even Avril Lavigne would be into this one.
Nashville folk-pop artist Gabrielle Grace opens along with local alt-rock act Stress Dolls. Tickets are $23.95
