Once a month, Cantora Records (the folks who launched MGMT, Violens, & Francis & The Lights) & PopGun Booking team up to present the intimate music series showcase known as Loose Nukes, now in it’s 3rd installment. Crammed in the cavernous underbelly of The Delancey in lower Manhattan, the small space has hosted some big scene acts; past guests have included Team Robespierre, Rumspringa, & Ninjasonik. This month, this Friday, February 20th, The Death Set will grace the stage for their first performance back on American soil after a long tour of Japan. Opening the night will be Knoxville indie rock troupe Royal Bangs.
