Daily Email - Thursday - 5/15/2024

May 15, 2025

Thursday’s here, teetering between burnout and brunch plans. If your brain’s already halfway to the weekend, we’ve got something to help it along: Trevor Wallace brings his Alpha Beta Male Tour to Balboa Theatre on 5/29, and we’re giving away tickets. Enter now – your serotonin needs this.*

JUST ANNOUNCED

  • Ty Dolla $ign is pulling up to NOVA on 6/19, and yes – your summer playlist is coming to life. Hooks for days and maybe a few surprise guests if we’re lucky. You in, or are you just gonna watch it on someone’s blurry story later?

  • Ready your inner gamer kid – this show’s going full chiptune. Anamanaguchi storms Casbah on 9/13 with sugar-rush melodies and punk energy. It’s high-BPM nostalgia with a side of chaos. Grab your tickets!

  • Synths, sweat, and a little existential dread – just another night when Nation of Language and Deeper team up at Music Box on 10/17. Post-punk pulses meet retro-futurist melancholy in a way that makes you want to lean in.

  • Heartache hits different when it’s dressed in doo-wop and slow-burning soul. The Altons and Thee Sinseers bring their Club Heartache Tour to The Observatory on 9/20, spinning tales of love and loss with a vintage groove. Tickets drop tomorrow!

  • Plus, other just-announced shows from ASTROPICAL, Bomba Estéreo, Rawayana, X Ambassadors, Béla Fleck & the Flecktones, and more!
