Claw Toe / Downside Salesman / Fjord Taurus / A Damn Gold Man
8:00pm - Adam Goldman is the songwriter behind Class M Planets and longtime singer of Portland’s thebrotheregg. While Class M Planets can perform as a full band, the project is built around Adam’s songs, and he often brings them to the stage solo. For this show, expect an intimate solo set centered on sharp songwriting, melodic indie rock roots, and the kind of personal, stripped-down performance that lets the songs speak for themselves.
9:00pm - Downside Salesman is a punk band from Chicago, Illinois, bringing sharp hooks, big feelings, and scrappy local-scene energy. Their Bandcamp lists the lineup as Bobby on vocals/guitar, Ryan on bass, Zachariah on guitar, and Alissa on drums. With their debut EP Wastehaven and songs like “I’m Okay, For Now” and “Diagnosis Negative,” Downside Salesman delivers melodic punk with emotional grit, driving guitars, and a loud-room feel built for Chicago DIY stages.

10:00pm - Fjord Taurus is a Chicago emo/indie rock band with a raw Midwest-emo edge and a loud, hallway-recorded kind of immediacy. Their Bandcamp tags the sound as Chicago rock, emo, indie rock, and Midwest emo, with the lineup listed as Max on guitar/vocals, Shawn on guitar, Casey on bass, and Drue on drums. Their 2026 release Songs From the Hallway features “Leaf,” “Withering,” “Itch,” and “Sharks,” showing a band built around sharp guitars, emotional punch, and scrappy Chicago DIY energy.

11:00pm - Claw Toe is a Chicago post-punk / proto-industrial rock ’n’ roll band led by British songwriter and Criminal IQ Records co-founder Darius Hurley. Their sound carries the torch of Chicago’s experimental punk scene: jagged guitars, weird hooks, nervous energy, and darkly funny underground attitude. With releases including Ingrown Ego, Claw Toe EP, Goblin Creme, and newer tracks like “Chicago Punk Rock Warrior / Ingrown Ego,” Claw Toe brings a sharp, strange, high-voltage set built for rooms that like their rock raw, art-damaged, and loud.
