    About This Event

    Esther Kohl marks the release of her LP Winner at Pianos, joined by 10xTantrum and Omijo. Kohl’s songs move between guitar-driven rock and experimental pop and favor direct songwriting and a lean stage presentation; 10xTantrum offers tight, momentum-driven rock/pop songs, while Omijo leans toward a band-forward, room-focused set. The bill sits within the downtown cassette and DIY network.

    About "Winner" (LP)

    Esther Kohl, a New York–based performer with ties to the downtown cassette and DIY ecosystem, brings her LP *Winner* to Pianos for a release-night set. The bill pairs her with 10xTantrum and Omijo, situating the show in a local circuit where pop structure and rock abrasion share space with experimental instincts. Her songs move between direct melody and rough-edged texture, treating the stage as a place to test what a “pop” song can hold. As an LP release in a small-room Manhattan venue, it marks the kind of NYC premiere that documents a scene in real time.
