To celebrate the release of their third studio album HYPERYOUTH (RCA), fast-rising alt/hip-hop phenoms Joey Valence & Brae are bringing their genre-defying (& insane) live show to The Showbox on 9/26 with special guests AG Club, and I’d love for you to preview (+ attend) if you have the bandwidth to include in your fall show coverage.
PRESS HERE for what their festival sets/crowds have looked like this summer following standout performances at Lollapalooza, Osheaga, Gov Ball, Bonnaroo and more, and HERE for a peek at their LA album release pop-up to get a sense of the energy and chaos they’re bringing to Seattle.
BBC Radio 1’s Jack Saunders had this to say about the live show: “They are the best live show I have been to in years. It made me feel like it was the first show I’d ever been to. That unique, first-time energy that you feel when you go to your first gig. That’s a very special quality.”
