LAYING WASTE TO HALLOWEEN: heartbroken + hopeful songs for the end of the world
With anti-capitalist anthems and environmental protest songs that sound like George Lucas fantasy tales or LOTR fan-fiction, New England-born Jesse James DeConto (The Pinkerton Raid) has been wandering with woodland ghosts and finding wholeness in the trees throughout his 15-year songwriting career. On Halloween night, he’ll sing of Nordic legends like “The Magical Flying Rowan Tree” and conjure the spirit of solidarity with “Thin Places," “The Village,” and a dozen more songs from his 2026 album for these end-times, IF YOU LOVE SOMEBODY, TELL THEM.
Andriana Chobot brings her cinematic piano balladry, and Milton Busker will open the night with his sartorial folk and heretical gospel tunes. $15 pre-sale. $20 at the door.
