80s Kids

“HOLY JOHN HUGHES THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!!” Get ready to turn up the nostalgia and sing your heart out! Synthpop sweethearts Shannon Curtis and Jamie Hill are returning to Reverb Lounge with 80s kids 2 — the second installment of their nationally touring hit side project 80s kids. 80s kids 2 — lovingly referred to by those in the know as “80s kids 2: The Empire Strikes Back” — is a high-octane joyride through the best of 1980s synthpop — tied together with funny, moving stories about growing up in the 80s. From the electrifying beats of Pet Shop Boys and New Order to the heart-on-the-sleeve melodies of OMD and Erasure, this show is a love letter to the decade of iconic anthems and underdog heroes. This dynamic concert-style theater show features all-time favorites from Thompson Twins, Soft Cell, Alphaville, Naked Eyes, The Human League, and many more — delivered in a wildly fun and interactive performance that feels like you’re experiencing them live for the first time. With awesome, authentic sound, amazing immersive video art, killer merch, inclusive energy, and magnetic, joyful stage presence, this hit show is an experience that you don’t want to miss.

Barns Courtney Unplugged Solo Sessions

Barns Courtney has lived through more industry upheaval than most artists survive — A&Rs disappearing, catalogs sold off, years stuck in dead-end contracts — yet he’s still standing. Signed at 19, reduced to sofa-surfing and odd jobs, he clawed his way back when Bradley Cooper hand-picked his voice for Burnt, just as his DIY single Glitter & Gold — recorded in an abandoned care home with filing cabinets for drums — quietly went platinum in the US. Since then, multiple Top 10 alt-radio hits and a reputation for chaotic, unmissable live shows have made him one of rock’s best-kept secrets. Now, a decade on and finally free on indie label Avenue A, Courtney isn’t making a comeback — he’s proving the music always connects, even when the machine fails.
