Next Thursday 4/23, @modern.crybaby returns to @finneganshoboken ! They’re a very (emo)tional band led by the Filipino Elder himself, Dylan Schroth. They’re full of confessional lyrics, anthemic breakdowns, and a healing nostalgia for 00s emo.
For fans of Fall Out Boy, Paramore, and Yellowcard
Supporting will be @blesserband - emotional American rock music featuring odd time signatures, loud noises, and lyrics for thinking which you can dance to.
For fans of the Smashing Pumpkins, Thursday, and Muse
Opening will be @midseasonformband , a 30-something hobbyist band you didn’t know you needed. They make “emo music to shake your ass to” - a little funk with some raw modern edge.
For fans of the Menzingers, the Hotelier, and Joyce Manor
Free admission, but a donation is appreciated. Music starts at 8:00
