For the second year in a row, we are stoked to announce an unofficial CMJ showcase with Out In The Streets! This year’s party will take place on Thursday, October 23rd at Lot 45 with a killer lineup of local talent and well as some imports including Rioux, Fort Lean, Zula, Yawn, Seoul, and more! Come party with us to experience the CMJ Music Marathon from the comfort of your own hood

CMJ only seems like a drag if a) you’re in a band that’s playing 3+ shows; b) you don’t know how to navigate the madness

Get swept away this weekend with a whole lotta great shows this weekend in Bushwick and beyond! This week we’ve got house parties, disco dancing, spookfolk concerts, and Escape Festival going down on Governor’s Island!

If you’re one of the 200,000 people to descend upon Austin’s city limits to partake in SXSW (and you know how to do it right now), and you want to see some of your favorite Brooklyn/Bushwick bands, you can do so at one of two places – at an official showcase (where festival badges/wristbands ARE required) or at one of the many free shows they will be playing next week
