Post-holiday blues got you in the doldrums? Sulk no more! It’s Carnival season, y’all!

It’s time to break out your glitter, sequins, boas, wigs, headpieces, masks, capes, or that old Halloween costume you only wore once. Dress up, get weird, and come to Pauly’s Hotel in Albany on Saturday, February 26 to celebrate the Mardi Gras spirit!

We’ve got four bands lined up for you this evening for only $5.

Yort is a psychedelic rock band from Troy, NY that blends elements of various genres (from surf to disco to new wave) to create a truly unique listener experience.

Top Button is a synth-pop band hailing from the Hudson Valley that knows how to throw a party.

New Expressions, making the trek all the way from Binghamton, brings you a mix of post-punk and experimental pop and a side of flair.

Finial hails from the Albany area and offers up a mix of new wave and surf that will get you up and moving.

Doors open at 7:30. Tell your friends, tell your loved ones, come and get down on a night that is going to be anything but your average show in the Capital Region. Hope to see you there!

See flyer below for everything I’ve just told you, but in a more condensed version.
