Chicago indie-rock band The Braymores will perform at the Bowery Ballroom in Manhattan on July 27. The Manhattan concert features support from opening act Day We Ran. The show is part of a larger national tour that includes more than 40 scheduled dates across the summer and fall.
The concert takes place just days after the July 24 release of the band’s sophomore studio album, When The Lights Went Out. The upcoming record will be available across all major digital streaming platforms. In tandem with the album announcement, the group released its latest single, “Thought Control.”
The new music marks a narrative shift for the band, focusing on fictional character stories rather than personal experiences. The tracks utilize a darker, cinematic tone to explore themes of intense internal thoughts and the emotional complexity of dysfunctional relationships. The single specifically examines the emotional push-and-pull and conflicting memories associated with a breakup.
Formed in 2022, the independent group consists of vocalist and guitarist Matt Tilles, guitarist Keegan Melaniphy, drummer Russell Oren, and bassist Connor Kohanzo. The project began after the musicians reconnected as former high school classmates in Chicago. The members built their initial audience through local open mics, regional showcases, and continuous touring.
Following the New York City performance, the band will return to Illinois for a hometown festival appearance at Lollapalooza in Chicago. The group is scheduled to perform a afternoon set on the BMI Stage on Thursday, July 30.
