Live This Week: December 14 - 20, 2025

Joyer

There are three Shuttlecock gigs happening this week and two are happening at the same time. Luckily those two are right next door to each other, so you can take in at least a little bit of each. First on Tuesday, Care Free (straight edge hardcore from Wichita) and Yasmin Nur (an alt rock singer-songwriter also from Wichita) play at Howdy along with Figure 8s, Unity Ticket, and Held Within. Then on Wednesday, Joyer (NY-via-NJ indie rock band) plays Farewell while Scissortail Flycatcher (screamo from Houston, Texas) plays next door at Howdy.

 

Other acts worth catching this week include Teenage Bottlerocket, They're Theirs, Piltdown, Dub Vendors, TUN, The Uncouth, Lower Heaven, Drifter, and Field Creek.
