WORLD/INFERNO FRIENDSHIP SOCIETY
It hasn’t been too long since punk/folk/klezmer collective World/Inferno Friendship Society last stopped in NYC, but they’ll soon return to the area in the form of Hallowmas, their annual celebration which typically involves lots of theatrics and surprise uses of fire, and this year’s Hallowmas happens at Warsaw on Halloween night. In addition, the band will play Alternative Tentacles’ 40th anniversary festival Tentacle Fest in Berkeley, CA, and O+ Kingston Festival on 10/11 in Kingston, NY. These are the band’s only dates at the moment.
BLACK MOON
Brooklyn rap vets Black Moon are releasing their new album Rise of Da Moon on October 18 via Duck Down, and they’ll celebrate shortly afterwards in their home city with a release show on November 1 at SOB’s. It appears to be their only upcoming date at the moment.
