Open City

THANK YOU

A huge thanks to everyone who came out to Sunday's show at the Church. Because of you, we were able to raise $3,243 for Juntos!

If you were unable to make it out, we would still like to encourage you to visit the Juntos website and make a donation to South Philadelphia's community-led, Latine immigrant organization fighting for human rights as workers, parents, youth, and immigrants. The work is not done! 🤜 🧊

Hello, friends. We are pleased to share the news of our first proper shows in five years, which oddly feels at once like a very short, and very long amount of time. Indeed they are also our first since the release of 'Hands In The Honey Jar' on Get Better Records.

We will be visiting all three places a band can play: Long Island, D.C., & Philadelphia.

We're treating the Philly show as an LP release celebration of sorts, but rather than foreground the sort of consumption-first energies that traditionally accompany such an event, we're choosing instead to favor our community and local grassroots engagement. Which is to say it is both aggressively priced with accessibility to all in mind (ten dollars, but no one will be turned away for lack of funds), and all proceeds from the show will go to benefit Juntos.

Of course, we'll have the new record for sale, too, but additionally, we'll also be trading copies of our 1st LP to anyone who brings a non-perishable food donation for the Share Food Program's community fridges.

Tickets for the shows, which are all we have planned at the moment, are on sale now. If you have even a passing familiarity with our band, you'll know it's impossible to say if and when more will happen, so we do hope you can join us.

Very wild to think we will be playing our first and, for the foreseeable future, ONLY show in Florida (and we can extend that to the entire southeast) in just over 2 short weeks. The lineup for our gig at THE FEST is out of control, and, should you be unable to "fest" entirely, individual tickets to it are available now:
