AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM THE UNLIKELY CANDIDATES One listen to The Unlikely Candidates (Kyle Morris, Cole Male, Brent Carney & Jared Hornbeek) and it’s clear that the Fort Worth, TX alternative rock mavericks create their own scene. One song vaults from stadium anthem into a piano ballad, while the next twists from syncopated singalong into a contemporary grunge-influenced pop song. Hailing from Texas, the boys immediately separated themselves since uniting in high school. Breaking from the typical musical traditions associated with the Lone Star State, they turned up with an alternative style of their own. They challenged the status quo and carved out their own niche in Fort Worth. The band has logged countless miles on the road alongside everyone from Cage The Elephant, Sublime with Rome, The Offspring, Young The Giant, The Dirty Heads, Fall Out Boy, The Goo Goo Dolls, & most recently 311. As they’ve grown as a band, the boys have earned acclaim from the likes of The New York Times, AXS, Esquire, Nylon, Alternative Press, Baeble, and more. Additionally, the band’s music has been featured on Hulu’s Veronica Mars, Showtime’s Ray Donovan, ABC’s American Idol, FOX’s The Four, NFL’s Super Bowl 2018 playoffs, and ESPN’s 2018 Indy 500.

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 6:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM The Jack Rubies UK band The Jack Rubies emerged from the British C86 indie-pop movement, and are known for their cutting, intelligent lyrics and “noir-tinged” guitar pop. First active in the late 1980s, the group gained a cult following in the U.S. Their 1987 single “Be with You” became a favorite on college radio and MTV’s 120 Minutes. With Ian Wright on vocals and guitar, SD Ineson on guitar, bassist Steve Brockway, percussionist Lawrence Giltnane and Peter Maxted on drums, the Rubies debuted with their mini album “Witch-Hunt in Lotusland” (1986). They went on to sign with New York’s TVT Records and released two albums on the label – “Fascinatin’ Vacation” (1988) and “See the Money In My Smile” (1990). During their first run, they toured with notable acts such as They Might Be Giants, Modern English, and Katrina and the Waves, before disbanding for over three decades. In 2024, the original lineup delivered a new, critically lauded album, “Clocks Are Out Of Time”. Their fourth album, “Visions In The Bowling Alley”, was released Jan 23, 2026. Music: Big Stir Records – The Jack Rubies Band info: https://www.instagram.com/thejackrubies https://www.facebook.com/TheJackRubies/ Dot Dash WASHINGTON POST: “Everything we’ve ever read about Dot Dash plays up the group’s collective resume: Singer/guitarist Terry Banks was in St. Christopher and the Saturday People before teaming up with bassist Hunter Bennett in acclaimed indie-rock band Julie Ocean and drummer Danny Ingram co-founded harDCore band Youth Brigade. Very impressive. But we’re more interested in the music, a retro cocktail that recalls the yearning indie-pop of Sarah Records; the ’80s neo-Byrds jangle of R.E.M., Orange Juice and other seminal college radio artists, and tight, throbbing basslines and slashing guitars that evoke the Jam and the Clash.” dotdashdc.bandcamp.com/

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Never Ending Fall Formed in the 4th grade, Never Ending Fall (NEF) is an indie-rock band comprised of lead singer and guitarist Jack Miller, drummer Tommy StClair, guitarist and keyboardist Conrad Boyd, guitarist Pearce Eisenhardt, and bassist Johnny Hohman. The Maryland natives’ repertoire combines sounds ranging from heavy-hitting alt-rock to funky basslines to lighter, electric feel-good melodies. After moving to Los Angeles and rising from their hit TikTok series and jingle ‘Can it Kirkland’, the group has amassed the likes and views of millions worldwide with their undeniable talent, creativity and chemistry. The five-piece are now headlining tours and drawing sellout crowds in major US markets, backed by their ever-surging fanbase. Never Ending Fall’s new album ‘MOMENTUM’ is available everywhere now via DIO/Undercurrent Moony After releasing and touring his debut album WARNING HIGH CUBE from 2024-2025, Singapore-raised now Nashville-based Seth Findley (moony) established himself as a creative force to be reckoned with in the independent alternative rock scene of Nashville. His ever-growing cult-like fanbase of self-deemed ”moonies” bonds over rich visuals, dense lore, singable anthems, and captivating live shows in the “moonyverse” – a hidden pocket of Earth where all are welcome but only the brave and curious have entered. Raw, vulnerable, and often unhinged, moony wastes no time getting to the heart of the matter with his music coinciding world-building. Songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist blurring the line between genres showcasing a sonic landscape of edgy alt-rock, hardcore, punk mellow indie, and a touch of catchy pop, moony is at full form after having spent the origin of his musical career as the frontman and primary songwriter of indie rock trio outfit Honest Men before their disbandment in 2022. “This was never meant to be a pristine, polished thing,” moony explains. “It’s the messy, unpolished side of me that needs an outlet. It’s not that I think I’m doing something revolutionary, but I’m not going to let myself overthink this. It’s been very personally rewarding.”
Dinner Time ~ Ernest Strawfield ~ Shred Flinstone
AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 6:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Dinner Time Dinner Time was founded in Atlanta, GA in 2018 as a collaborative project, focused on bringing together songwriters from several existing groups. Influenced by garage rock, saccharine 60s melodies, and a DIY mentality, the group released their debut album DINNER TIME in 2019. The group continued to redefine their sound on subsequent LPs Halfway Down (2021) and Technicolor (2024), adding moody synthesizers, more psychedelic production techniques, and leaning into jazzier changes. The quintet has spent the years in between touring the country, appearing at Treefort Music festival, SXSW, and even collaborating with the Atlanta Braves. Now the band has come full circle, and is ready to share DINNER TIME 2. This album represents a return to form, back to the familiar influences of their debut, now with years of experience under their belts. Layers of acoustic guitars and mellow pianos evoke the sounds of the 70s, while catchy melodies and soaring guitar harmonies hint at the band’s varied influences (which include the Zombies, the Beatles, the Doobie Brothers, Randy Newman, CSNY, and Masayoshi Takanaka). Produced in collaboration with Clark Hamilton (Klark Sound, Improvement Movement), DINNER TIME 2 will be released on May 8, 2026 via Dinner Time Records. Ernest Strawfield Shred Flinstone
