What's going on Friday?
You can browse our full NYC show calendar for all of tonight’s shows, but here are some highlights…
Panda Bear @ Pioneer Works
Panda Bear is fresh off releasing his new album Buoys, which is cut from a similar cloth as his last few albums but brings some prominent acoustic guitar back into his sound. This is his second NYC show this week in support of it.
Thundercat @ Blue Note (2 shows)
He’s collaborated with everyone from Flying Lotus and Kendrick Lamar to Michael McDonald and Suicidal Tendencies — the genre-defying bassist continues his Blue Note residency tonight with two shows. Tonight’s guests are Zack Fox at the 8 PM show and Reggie Watts at the 10:30 and 12:30 shows.

Now in its 20th year, The Love Hangover is an annual Valentine’s show featuring a cavalcade of performers doing anything they want as long as a) the song is about love and b) it’s a duet. Pairings include Versus’ RIchard Balyut & Laura Cantrell, Tsunami’s Jenny Toomey & Franklin Bruno, Bridget St. John & David Nagler, and lots more. Proceeds go to Sound of Saving.
