Swing Kids (10 Years of the Chain) w/ Fatboi Sharif, Trace Amount & More
About This Event
Swing Kids’ "10 Years of the Chain" bill at Elsewhere brings Swing Kids with Fatboi Sharif, Trace Amount, Venus Twins and Body Stuff. The lineup gathers artists working at the edges of rock, pop and electronic — from Swing Kids’ dance‑leaning rhythms and direct hooks to Fatboi Sharif’s compressed experimental hip hop, Trace Amount’s industrial/EBM textures, and Venus Twins and Body Stuff’s noise‑and‑tempo driven approaches.
About 10 Years of the Chain
“10 Years of the Chain” arrives at Elsewhere as a live Rock/Pop bill that treats the stage like an archive of a scene in motion. Swing Kids, Fatboi Sharif, Trace Amount, Venus Twins, and Body Stuff move through different dialects of rhythm and noise, closer to a survey than a single statement. In a city where venues open, close, and rebrand, the title reads as a quiet ledger of time spent in public. The most telling detail is the lineup’s range, suggesting continuity is built from friction as much as from agreement.
