“Authority Zero has never been called “negative.” Even during a pandemic, they kept their collective chin up, put their heads down and wrote what could be called their career album. Released in June 2021, Authority Zero’s album “Ollie Ollie Oxen Free” takes a line from hide and seek to encourage fans to leave the COVID-19 depression behind and celebrate life. TICKETS: 

Authority Zero - Apocalyptour 2026 with Special Guests Counterpunch, Tuesday, October 27, 2026, 7:00pm | Alchemy Providence | Providence, RI | Opendate

Carsie Blanton is a songwriter with hooks, chutzpah, and revolutionary optimism. A radical folk artist in the tradition of Woody Guthrie, her infectious melodies and lyrical wit keep listeners rapt while she conjures spirits of vaudeville, campfire singalongs, and punk rock. Blanton and her road-tested band deploy humor, camaraderie, and considerable musical muscle to enroll each audience in a rare vision of hope and solidarity. Doors @ 7 pm TICKETS:

It takes good soil, and good seasons, to bear good fruit, and Upstate has had its plenty. The band sprung up in New York’s legendary Hudson Valley, set in the middle of a thick American musical heritage. To their inland West was the Ashokan reservoir folk tradition, and across the river to the East the legacy of Pete Seeger and the Clearwater. Just north of them was Woodstock and Big Pink, and all the treasured inheritance of Bob Dylan and the Band. Just south was Tony Falco’s famed venue the Falcon, a refuge and respite for some of the most venerable jazz legends like Sonny Rollins or Joe Lovano. From the first, Upstate drew liberally from everything each corner had to offer.

FORAGER is a Brooklyn-based trio whose music augments contemporary indie rock with intricate guitar work, melismatic vocals, and curious, shapeshifting grooves. NPR's Bobby Carter called their music "buttery" and "complex," remarking, "where have you been all my life?!?" FORAGER has built their following on the strength of their live show, selling out venues across the U.S., and opening for artists like Raveena, Salami Rose Joe Louis, and Red Baraat.

Forager and special guests, Saturday, December 05, 2026, 5:00pm | Alchemy Providence | Providence, RI | Opendate

No other artist of the 20th century has fought, forged, punched, and sculpted their own artistic vision in such a uniquely original way. Defying categorization, Lydia Lunch has actively conquered new territories and gained international recognition for the innovative quality of her work. Through music, books, spoken word performances, film, video, photography, poetry and a multitude of creative endeavors, she has proven to be one of the most daring artists of the current era. Sexual icon, radical and unclassifiable, Lunch has never ceased to denounce conformism, the exploitation of misery, American politics and violence against women. Her spirit of revolt, her independence, and her prolific collaborations continue to influence new generations of artists.
