You can browse our full NYC show calendar for all of tonight’s shows, but here are some highlights…
The Front Bottoms, Screaming Females, Diet Cig, Jank, Ezra Furman & many more @ Webster Hall (Champagne Jam)
NJ’s Front Bottoms throw their annual holiday show, ‘Champagne Jam,’ in all three rooms of Webster Hall tonight. They’re of course headlining, and the lineup also includes Jersey shredders Screaming Females, peppy pop duo Diet Cig, humorous punks Jank, the genre-defying Ezra Furman, and more.
Dave Harrington’s Holiday Spectacular ft. members of Yeasayer, Vampire Weekend, Woods, Bear In Heaven, Holy Ghost!, Woods and more @ Brooklyn Bowl
Dave Harrington’s annual holiday show is tonight. As always, he’s got an impressive lineup of local musicians, including Alex Frankel (Holy Ghost), Anand Wilder (Yeasayer), Chris Tomson (Vampire Weekend), Jen Goma (A Sunny Day in Glasgow), Steve Mario (Delicate Steve), Jarvis Taveniere (Woods), Marc Brownstein & Aron Magner (The Disco Biscuits), and many more.
Young Thug, 21 Savage @ Terminal 5
There really isn’t any other rapper around who sounds like Young Thug, who stuffs about seven different voices onto each mixtape (and sometimes onto each song). Fellow Metro Boomin collaborator 21 Savage opens, making this a rock-solid double bill.
Children of Bodom, Abbath, Exmortus, Oni @ Irving Plaza
You may not care about Children of Bodom, but any chance to see (former Immortal vocalist) Abbath is one worth taking. His self-titled debut solo album came out earlier this year and it rips.
Los Lobos @ City Winery
Roots rock greats Los Lobos continue their annual holiday residency at City Winery tonight.
75 Dollar Bill, Morgan Vo @ Union Pool
Brooklyn duo 75 Dollar Bill released WOOD/METAL/PLASTIC/PATTERN/RHYTHM/ROCK earlier this year and the album title is a fitting sort of descriptor for the jazzy, jammy, textured and very cool music 75 Dollar Bill make. This is the final show of their Union Pool residency, joined tonight by poet Morgan Vo.
