The Fox Theater

Poppy’s live shows have always felt like a glitch in the matrix, and her Constantly Nowhere Tour is shaping up to be her most unpredictable yet. If you’ve followed her since the days of cryptic YouTube uploads and surrealist pop experiments, you know she’s never content to repeat herself. This tour leans into her fascination with the uncanny, blending industrial noise, bubblegum hooks and a visual aesthetic that’s equal parts sci-fi and performance art. The setlists have been restless, skipping between eras and moods with the same disregard for genre boundaries that’s made her such a cult favorite. Don’t expect a straightforward concert—Poppy’s shows are more like immersive installations, with moments that veer from hypnotic to jarring in the span of a single song. If you’re after something genuinely strange and memorable, this is the night to circle on your calendar.

Passion Pit’s return to the stage feels like a rare treat for anyone who remembers the first time “Sleepyhead” rattled their headphones. Michael Angelakos and company have always thrived on the tension between bright, sugar-rush synths and lyrics that cut a little deeper than you’d expect. Live, that contrast hits even harder. The setlist leans into the band’s knack for turning personal anxieties into communal singalongs, and the crowd’s energy tends to match the band’s jittery optimism. If you’re after a night that’s more cathartic than nostalgic, this is it. The Telegraph Room upgrade is a nice touch for those who want to dodge the usual venue chaos, but the real draw is hearing those shimmering hooks bounce around a room full of people who know every word. It’s a reminder of how good pop can feel when it’s a little bit weird.
