Murder by Death at District Music Hall

Wednesday, June 25 at 7:00 p.m. (doors open at 6:00).

Taking their moniker from the 1976 Neil Simon-scripted comedy of the same name, Bloomington, Indiana’s Murder by Death deliver a heady blend of brooding and erudite balladry and orchestral indie rock that draws from country, folk, rock and musical theatre. Citing influences like Johnny Cash and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, the group emerged in the early 2000s in a blaze of post-rock and gothic Americana – they often refer to their style as “whiskey devil music.” Tickets at https://bit.ly/4gvy3dz.
