Live Music: Good Luck w/Sweet Harm & Dark Surfers
2025-11-08 19:00 - 22:00
Originally formed in Bloomington, Indiana in the late aughts, Good Luck plays joyful, intricate, unique punk-ish music with a DIY spirit. They always delicately straddled the border lines between interwoven scenes, trying on Midwest emo, jangly singer-songwriter, anthemic rock, and twinkle guitar before settling somewhere in no man’s land with their own sound and a “we’re a punk band” shrug.
After a decade-or-so hiatus, Ginger, Matt, and Mike got together again in 2024. With rejuvenated energy and a concerted “not a reunion band” effort, they’re playing some select dates in support of their soon-to-be-released first album in 14 years. They’ve got big dreams, mister.
Good Luck will be joined by Sweet Harm (punk) and Dark Surfers (indie dream pop)
All ages. Doors 7pm Show 8pm$15 adv $18 door

The Alexa Torres & Mario Wellmann Quartet presents original music that weaves contemporary jazz language with rhythmic ideas from Latin America. This Fall 2025 tour frames the music around reconstruction—building sound worlds from fragments of melody and memory: Chile’s democratic rebuilding after the dictatorship, the post-earthquake/tsunami recovery of communities, the personal reweaving of lives shaped by exile and diaspora, among other themes. Anchoring the group are Guillermo López (MM, Juilliard; appearances at Blue Note, Smalls, and Dizzy’s) and Daniel Dufour (performances with Seamus Blake, Rotem Sivan, and others across the U.S.; faculty at UT Austin).
Doors open at 7:30 PM; Music begins at 8:00 PM.
Tickets are $18 in advance and $22 at the door.
