What's going on Monday? (Common, Caveman, Silver Snakes, Eternal Summers, Pete Seeger tribute & more)
Eternal Summers at Cake Shop in April (more by Amanda Hatfield)
You can browse our full NYC show calendar for all of tonight’s shows, but here are some highlights…
Eternal Summers, Seoul, Little Racer, Wand @ Baby’s All Right
Eternal Summers delivered more of their promising indie pop on this year’s Doug Gillard-produced album, The Drop Beneath. Joining them tonight is Montreal’s Seoul who make breathy pop not unlike ’80s bands like The Dream Academy and Prefab Sprout, and Brooklyn’s Little Racer who make UK-inspired guitar pop. Openers Wand are the new band from Samuel Shea who used to be in Spires and also make psych-guitar-pop.
Bass Drum of Death, Beechwood, Skully @ Matchless
Mississippi garage rockers BDoD are in NYC and playing this FREE show at Matchless tonight. Is a new album on the way? Get there early to catch Scully, the new band from Caroline of Habibi/Splinters.
Common @ Gramercy Theatre
Veteran rapper Common’s tenth album, Nobody’s Smiling, is out this week and tonight he celebrates with a free release show. To get in, you need a wristband which were given away this past Friday and will be given away again today at 10 AM at the Gramercy Theatre.
Caveman, Icewater, Future of What @ Bowery Electric
NYC indie rockers Caveman have been playing much bigger venues lately, but tonight they’ll bless their hometown with the smallest show they’ve played in a while by far. Doors are at 7:30 at admission is $10 at the door. First come, first served.
Silver Snakes, Vattnet Viskar, No Way, Twin Strike @ Acheron
Silver Snakes bring together ’90s-style post-hardcore and alt-rock, while Vattnet Viskar favor atmospheric black metal, which makes for a diverse but excellent double bill.
Amanda Palmer, Anti-Flag (acoustic), Toni Blackman, The Chapin Sisters, Rebel Diaz, Steve Earle, Sarah Lee Guthrie & Johnny Irion, James Maddock, Mike + Ruthy @ Central Park Summerstage (Pete Seeger Tribute)
As part of this year’s free Summerstage shows in Central Park, a handful of impressive musicians will come together to pay tribute to the late great Pete Seeger.
Gogol Bordello, Man Man @ Starland Ballroom
The always-wild gypsy punks Gogol Bordello don’t hit NYC on their current tour, but they’ll be nearby for three area shows, this being the third. The eccentric Man Man will be a good fit too.
Night Train w/ guest hosts Dapwell & Josh Gondelman @ Littlefield
Wyatt Cenac is sitting this one out but his weekly Night Train comedy show still goes on with ex-Das Racist member Dapwell and Josh Gondelman guest hosting. Joining them will be Kevin Avery, Gina Brillon, Erin Judge, Josh Rabinowitz, Jake Weisman, and KC Arora.
