Laced with her usual humor, the album explores the intricacies of brokenheartedness with equal parts vulnerability and candid badassery. This record has been a long time in the making, and O'Sullivan will be playing it in its entirety at the Merc on May 2. She'll have her full band with her, all of whom are featured on the record. Plus it's on vinyl, folks, and there are bonus tracks, and Taylor Swift-esque coded liner notes. Don’t miss it. (303) 294-9258

From a first listen to any of his projects, you’ll hear influences of 2010s Chicago Drill in the explosive bass-boosted 808s, Shoegaze and Black Metal in the washed out guitars, and Horrorcore in his dark, eldritch bars and ominous album art. Much like artists such as Yung Lean, it’s hard to pigeonhole him into any one genre or subculture — but the hundreds of millions of streams he’s received on Spotify and Apple Music show his mercurial status… 303-297-1772
