About this concert
The Tins (Buffalo, NY) : 11:00 PM https://thetinsmusic.bandcamp.com/ Known by many as a prolific musical force, The Tins are comprised of three unique songwriting talents. With influences ranging from The Kinks and The Byrds, to Animal Collective and Tame Impala, The Tins craft masterfully layered jams that USA Today calls “Brilliant Pop Exuberance.” Hailing from Buffalo NY, the trio has released a number of critically acclaimed albums and toured the country with their captivating live performances. The Buffalo three-piece have come far since their early days in an underground practice space at New York State’s Binghamton University. The Tins first single, “The Green Room,” was chosen by Sean Parker, a once Spotify board member, as a staple of the Hipster International Playlist, placement and rotation on Sirius Radio, and received Spotify staff picks #2 song of the year. Since that point the Tins have worked with Modest Mouse producer Joe Blaney and Ted Young (Kurt Vile, The Gaslight Anthem) and have garnered millions of plays across all streaming music services. Praised by NME, Entertainment Weekly, NYLON and Paste Magazine, The Tins are preparing to release their upcoming EP, City Lies, showcasing their boldest, most powerfully enchanting music to date. herMajesty10:50 PM (NYC, NY): 10:00 PM www.hermajestynycmusic.com NYC indie glam art rock project herMajesty have a new single, "I Saw the Dog," releasing on vinyl through Midday Records on November 2 and to digital stores on November 8, 2017. “I Saw the Dog” features Chris McQueen (Snarky Puppy, David Bowie, Forq) and Henry Hey (David Bowie, Forq) and was produced by Grammy winner Nic Hard. herMajesty continues to release memorable, thought-provoking, and lush recordings. .They received airplay on tastemaker stations like KEXP FM in Seattle and WFUV FM in NYC.

The Heroic Enthusiasts Biography
“Inspired. Glistening synth arpeggios, mathematically precise, propulsive four-on-the-floor and bursts of angular guitar paired with Tabbi’s expressive crooning and razor-sharp hooks.” —The Joy of Violent Movement
With feet firmly planted in the ethos of ‘80s post-punk, and an eye and sound focused toward the future, The Heroic Enthusiasts deliver powerful, intoxicating hooks spiked with touches of sophistication and danger.
The band was formed by James Tabbi and Thomas Ferrara in 2014, but the duo's symbiotic relationship dates back to the early ‘90s. Tabbi, the former lead singer of darkwave stalwarts and critical darlings Eleven Pond, and later, The Artillerymen; and Ferrara, a founding member of New York City-based rock group Bullseye (Columbia Records) and new wave bands The Puppets and 2 Boy Cure, were kindred spirits.
“Challenging yet innovative… a sound that feels equally nostalgic yet future-facing.” —Clash Magazine
“Alluringly refreshing and passionate.” —Fame Magazine
“Striking. Cinematic. [The Heroic Enthusiasts’] creative collaborations deftly merge the intellectual and emotional.” —Post Punk
“Lovely shimmering synth tones and backed up with guitars to give you a slap of the 1980s.” —It’s All Indie
“Dynamic . . . a breath of fresh air. Urgent and propulsive.” —This Is Pop
