    About This Event

    Strange Boutique, a Washington, D.C. rock group whose original run (1987–1994) produced four studio albums and two live releases on Bedazzled Records, brings its gothic rock/darkwave/post‑punk repertoire and singer Monica Richards, who later co‑founded Faith and the Muse, to Mercury Lounge. They share the bill with The Red Party, a New York rock/pop outfit that emphasizes pop hooks, tight ensemble playing and forward vocal presence, offering a contrast of atmosphere and direct songcraft.
