                                <description><![CDATA[Spafford is known for their astonishing improvisational ability and off-the-cuff extended jams, Spafford paints a picture in real-time each night with a musical palette known only to each other. It&#8217;s a private language comprised of both their talent as musicians as well as their formidable catalog of influences, spanning 90&#8217;s alt-rock radio hits to Steely Dan and The Crystal Method. Each Spafford show is a sonic pilgrimage, the journey of a team of musicians so in tune with each other that a single note communicates intent and purpose. Spafford is amongst the most creative and hard-traveling bands on the contemporary jam scene, performing countless sold-out headline dates along with high profile festival sets at Bonnaroo Music &#38; Arts Festival, Firefly Music Festival, and many others.]]></description>

At 90s Night, we're bringing the decade back in full force. Think TLC, Destiny's Child, Biggie, Spice Girls, Salt-N-Pepa, Missy Elliott, Backstreet Boys, Britney, Whitney &#8212; every song that made you feel like the main character and still does. No bad vibes. No standing around waiting for a good song. Just back-to-back 90s bangers from the first beat to the last. Come dressed up, come casual, come however feels like you &#8212; we care about vibes, not outfits. Earlybirds Club is more than a night out &#8212; it's a judgment-free, joy-forward space where kindness, good vibes, and sensible footwear rule. New to us? You'll feel right at home from the first song. There's plenty of room for everyone. 10% of ticket proceeds go to the Susie Lee Legacy Fund, supporting nonprofits that uplift women, gender-expansive people, and communities who need it most. Note: Earlybirds Club is designed for women and gender-expansive people. Everything about this space &#8212; the energy, the music, the intention &#8212; is centered on that community. We don't police identity at the door, but we ask that everyone who purchases a ticket understands and respects what this space was created for.

                                <description><![CDATA[West 22nd is an Austin-based rock band formed by friends who met at the University of Texas with a singular mission: become the next great rock band.&#160; They call their sound carousel rock, a style that spins through genre, emotion, and energy without losing its center. The term captures the tension at the heart of their music: controlled chaos that is sometimes dizzying, sometimes grounding, and always unforgettable.&#160; After a breakout EP and a debut album that have amassed over 75 million streams worldwide, West 22nd made one thing clear - they are not here to blend in. Their lyrics are autobiographical, their shows are electric, and their ambition is unmistakable. They have taken the stage at ACL, sold out numerous dates on their debut headlining tour, and built a fanbase that shouts every word back at them. West 22nd is not chasing nostalgia or trends. They are writing what comes next. And if you have ever felt a chorus hit at exactly the right moment, you already understand.&#160; For the latest updates, upcoming shows, and more, visit their official website: west-22nd.com&#160; &#160;]]></description>
