Baio playing SXSW, a few NYC-area shows & more

Vampire Weekend’s Chris Baio (aka Baio) recently wrapped up his tour in support of his debut solo album The Names, and now he has more shows announced. He’s playing SXSW, a few NYC-area shows, and more.

He’s stopping by Port Chester’s Garcia’s on April 5 (the tiny side room at the Capitol Theatre) and he’s playing NYC’s inaugural multi-venue The Grid festival too.

Baio is also DJing the Cocktail Magic party on March 19 at Weylin B. Seymour’s (175 Broadway in Brooklyn) that has food from Roberta’s, cocktails, live music, and more. Tickets (starting at $159.50) are on sale.
