.Don’t burn the house down while we’re gone. In fact, I’ll expect full reports of how each night goes, cause I’m especially bummed to be missing a few of these shows!! - Caroline
MONDAY:
HOLYWATR (7PM) <AA>
Loud, crunchy and fun. Feels like a 2005 Warped revival vibe, and I love it. - Alex
Dark, Nu Metal type music. This one's got a DnB outro and the song is about a one night stand... Kind of awesome if you ask me. - Carson
Type of thing I would have heard at 14 and played for my dad, thinking he would also think it was really cool, and he would ask if I needed help. I still think it’s cool - Caroline
TUESDAY:
EARLY: HOLYWATR (630PM) <AA>
Night two but it's technically night one. Sold out! - Alex
Make it a two-night stand... - Carson
In case your rage has not run out, they’re back for more. I bet his throat hurts. - Caroline
LATE: SITUATIONIST (930PM) <18+>
Loved by all, Elisha is a young King, and his new band Situationist RIPS. Big Epoxy fan too, fast becoming a baby staple. - Alex
I'm a bit of a situationist myself quite frankly. - Carson
One of the elusive and all talented Henig siblings, baby’s delight ! Epoxy are back for yawping - Caroline
WEDNESDAY:
EARLY: AMARIA (6:30PM) <18+>
Another MFM banger... feels like this has been in the works for many moons. - Alex
The Smoothest R&B. Love the production on this one. - Carson
Dreamy and smooth, definitely kissing music - Caroline
LATE: GOODY GRACE (930PM) <18+>
Continuing the theme of Warped vibe bangers, it's Goody Grace! - Alex

LATE: COMBO CHIMBITA (9:30PM) <21+>
Legends of the scene, ultimate party vibe. Baby's love Combo Chimbita. - Alex
I have heard multiple people say that this is the best live band in Brooklyn. I've somehow not seen one of their shows yet, but if it's anything like this then I'm going to have to agree.... - Carson
Their last play at baby’s sold out like crazy and was an unbelievable show. I can’t overstate how good this is. Bouncey and dancey and tropical and sexy and just great fun - Caroline
FRIDAY:
EARLY: DALLAS WAX (7:00PM) <18+>
Local rockers take on their Baby's weekend headline debut. Say it five times over! - Alex
Now this is some top notch local rock n roll! - Carson

Huge night for dancing and cleanliness. - Alex
A super hot and sweaty indie/electronic dance party :-) - Carson

Alex and Caroline couldn't be more right about Combo Chimbita. Carson, please get on board. They are always around. An automatic ticket buy for me. The one group I'll see again and again and again and then again with offshoot groups like Carolina Oliveros' Bulla en El Barrio. Excited to check out Amaria tomorrow! The vocals are so smooth!!
