ACL Festival Weekend One - Friday
Gang of Youths at ACL Fest (more by Andy Sawyer)

You can browse our full NYC show calendar for all of tonight’s shows, but here are some highlights…

Gang of Youths, Gretta Ray @ Irving Plaza
Gang of Youths are still riding high off the strength of 2017’s great, super ambitious Go Farther In Lightness, and as great as that album is, they’re even better live. So it’s good news that they’re back in NYC tonight for the second time this year.

AlunaGeorge, Ryahn @ Bowery Ballroom
UK electronic pop duo AlunaGeorge recently returned with the Champagne Eyes EP, which was sort of a return to a more minimal sound, following their slightly poppier 2016 album I Remember. This is one of just four US shows they’re playing in support of it. After the show, they’ll DJ an afterparty at Good Room.

Mumford & Sons, Maggie Rogers @ Madison Square Garden
Mumford and Sons recently released Delta, which is sort of a return to folk rock after the more atmospheric arena rock of Wilder Mind. They’re as big as ever — this is their second of two MSG shows this week. Opening is Maggie Rogers, who also continues to get very popular.

Doe Paoro, Coyle Girelli Rough Trade
Brooklyn singer/songwriter Doe Paoro recently released her album Soft Power via ANTI-, and her tour supporting it hits her hometown tonight.

Talib Kweli, Just Blaze, DJ Tony Touch @ Cielo
Tony Touch (aka Tony Toca) does another of his Toca Tuesdays parties at Cielo, and this time he’s got DJ sets from veteran rapper Talib Kweli and veteran rap producer Just Blaze.

Two Minutes To Late Night w/ Ben Weinman, Dave Hill, Janeane Garofalo @ Saint Vitus
Heavy metal talk show ‘Two Minutes to Late Night’ tapes its season finale at its usual home of Saint Vitus tonight. Mutoid Man are the house band as usual, and guests include former Dillinger Escape Plan guitarist (and recently, briefly Suicidal Tendencies touring member) Ben Weinman, rocker/comedian Dave Hill, and comedian/Reality Bites star Janeane Garofalo.

Delicate Steve, Sam Evian @ Elsewhere
Guitar wizard Delicate Steve recently released a Christmas album (titled The Christmas Album) which has him performing instrumental version of many holiday standards. Expect much the same at this holiday show.

Harmony Tividad (of Girlpool), Abby T, Solychaski, Ushamami, Soul Worm @ H0L0
While Girlpool have a new album on the way, you can catch the band’s Harmony Tividad in solo mode tonight.
