Pulse Check is back, and we’re about to drop the needle on a week that’ll have you ditching your couch faster than you can say “algorithm-curated playlist.” From September 10 to 16, our fair city’s venues are transforming into temples of auditory bliss, serving up a smorgasbord of sounds that’ll have your eardrums doing backflips.
From jazz cats to metalheads, we’ve curated a list that’ll satisfy even the most discerning audiophile. Our city’s most hallowed halls and gritty dives are opening their doors, offering intimate encounters with both rising stars and seasoned vets.
We’ve sifted through the noise to bring you the cream of the crop. So ditch the Netflix, and get ready to ride the wave of pure, unadulterated musical bliss. Your future self will thank you for the tinnitus – it’s totally worth it.
