    About This Event

    A four-act bill at Alphaville brings Ouster Nash, Short Porch, Chained Bliss and Michael Younker to the stage. Chained Bliss works at the overlap of egg punk, garage rock and hardcore, favoring short forms and band-volume arrangements built for live settings; Michael Younker moves from garage frameworks into open-ended improvisation with a focus on pacing and room awareness. Ouster Nash bridges programmed textures and rock/pop songcraft, serving as a connective presence in mixed-genre bills.
