About The Side Effects Tour
The Side Effects Tour arrives at Mercury Lounge as a live Rock/Pop bill built around shifting ensembles and tight, song-forward sets. Johnny Manchild & The Poor Bastards, Friend of a Friend, and Karma and the Killjoys share the stage, each working within familiar forms while stressing different edges of the genre. No specific NYC premiere history is publicly established for this tour, but its placement in the Lower East Side club circuit situates it in a long-running pipeline for new touring acts. The most telling moments tend to come in the handoffs between bands, when contrasts do the storytelling.
