All Your Friends

Saturday, May 16 • 9:30 PM

If you're not spending your Friday night with All Your Friends, you're doing it wrong. This isn't just a gig; it's an indie baptism where the cool kids congregate under flickering neon lights and the thrum of synths that feel like an inside joke only you get. All Your Friends transforms the mundane into the ethereal, layering jangly guitars over beats that make your heart skip like a scratched vinyl. It’s a sonic pilgrimage for those who live for the thrill of discovering what's next before it sells out. Doors open at 9:30, which is just enough time to sip your overpriced IPA and scope out the crowd for familiar faces from last summer's warehouse rave. The $17 early bird price is a steal for the kind of night where you might just find yourself in a stranger's Polaroid collection or, better yet, in the liner notes of your next favorite band's debut EP. Get your advance tickets now, because nothing says indie cred like having the foresight to know this is the place to be—before everyone else does.
