Protomartyr at Crescent Ballroom

Detroit post-punk band Protomartyr brings their poetic and politically charged music to Phoenix's Crescent Ballroom. Their sixth album, "Formal Growth In The Desert," explores themes of loss and resilience, recorded at Sonic Ranch in Texas. Frontman Joe Casey's candid lyrics confront personal grief and the struggle to move forward.

The band's dynamic sound, with guitarist Greg Ahee's cinematic arrangements, creates an immersive live experience. Special guest Accessory, a Chicago-based indie rock project by Jason Balla, opens the night with their blend of acoustic and electronic sounds. For fans of thoughtful, intense rock, this show offers a compelling evening.
