Y-Not Radio 14th Anniversary: Lauran Hibberd ~ Harlee Torres
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: 8:00 PMY-NOT RADIO 14th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONLauran HibberdLife, as Ronan Keating famously once sang, is a rollercoaster – you’ve just got to ride it. Over the last 12 months, Lauran Hibberd has been strapped into a journey resembling hurtling along a loop-the-looping track, being thrown up to dizzying highs before plummeting to life-changing lows and back again. In August 2022, as her hook-filled triumph of a debut album ‘Garageband Superstar’ was soaring into the UK Top 40, she was grieving for her father, who’d died in the weeks ahead of the release. “A lot of stuff happened to me around that time – I lost my dad, I went through my first big break-up, I was living on my own for the first time,” she reflects now. It would have made sense if this intense period of grief, change and adaptation had left the 26-year-old needing to hit pause and focus on something other than music for a moment. Writing, though, became a way for her to deal with and continue processing the things she was going through. As she re-entered sessions in the studio, her second album ‘Girlfriend Material’ “just fell out” of her. “It felt like it needed to happen. I felt so much freer and a bit more capable of writing about certain topics than I did before,” she reasons. “It’s like, for the first album, someone sent me to Spain without me knowing any Spanish, and I’ve been like, ‘I’ll figure it out’. This time, I’ve had a year of learning Spanish, and I can ask for the time.” Now more confident and comfortable in the language of songwriting, the new album takes the foundations Hibberd started laying on ‘Garageband Superstar’ and builds them up several accomplished storeys. The tongue-in-cheek humour that won her praise from the likes of DIY, NME, Rolling Stone UK, Kerrang!, Radio 1 and more is still present, but it’s joined by new layers of nuance and candidness – think songs that can make you laugh, cry and feel less alone, all within under four minutes. Sonically, too, she’s entering new ground, bringing together forever influences like Avril Lavigne, Weezer and Green Day with the likes of Olivia Rodrigo, Liz Phair and Taylor Swift. https://www.lauranhibberd.com/Harlee TorresHarlee Torres is a bassist and songwriter based in Philadelphia and New York. After debuting with her 70’s disco jam ‘Call Me Again,’ Harlee followed up with ‘Passerby,’ a breezier, indie soul track that takes inspiration from the likes of Sade and Portishead. While she experiments with different genres upon each release, Harlee infuses each tune with Latin percussion, groovy basslines, eccentric harmonies, and introspective lyricism.https://linktr.ee/harleetorres

Short Porch ~ Lahnah ~ Funsucker ~ Big Slip
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: 8:00 PMShort PorchShort Porch is a rock and roll band from Brooklyn, NY.

Their debut album “The best of…Short Porch vol. 1” was recorded with Charles Dahlke of the Brazen Youth this past summer and released on February 1st, 2024; the same day as the bands first headlining show at Brooklyn Made.LahnahHailing from Philadelphia, Lahnah describes themselves as an “experimental butt rock” band. Their music, influenced by 70s jazz fusion, prog rock, and contemporary noise rock, as well as early aughts “butt rock” (of course), creates an angular, perpetually oscillating, and chaotic yet “tight” stream of sound. Since their inception in Brattleboro, VT, around 2018, the trio has crusaded across the north-atlantic with high energy live performances, sharing the stage with notable acts like Gustaf, Chris Brokaw of Come and Codeine, Guerilla Toss, Arc Iris, Thus Love, and many more.FunsuckerFunsucker is an alternative rock band started in 2021 by singer/songwriter Jo Casanova. What started off as a solo project quickly evolved into a full on 90’s guitar rock outfit, with elements of shoegaze, noise, and early emo/hardcore. Currently based in Brooklyn, the band’s lineup features Tucson, Arizona natives Damian Diaz (Trees Speak) on guitar, and Daniel Olitzky on drums, as well as Alexander Pope (Trees Speak/Dropper) on bass. Though their inspiration may be drawn mainly from decades preceding them, Funsucker continues to experiment sonically without regard for any specific genre. Their upcoming record “ONLY FANTASY” is slated to be released in April this year.Big SlipBig Slip began as a collaboration between Caleb (Bonus, Negative World Status) & Ian (Bass Drum of Death, E-Meters) in Oxford, MS. Fusing a love of fuzzy, shoegaze guitars and blistering drums, their sound is simultaneously loud and comforting, dirgy and frenetic. Now located in Philadelphia with new-comers Ben & Jack on drums and bass respectively, Big Slip will resonate with lovers of 90s-indebted rock and punk. FFO: my bloody valentine, Ovlov, Swirlie.
