Adrian Younge brings his jazzy, sample-steeped production wizardry to Empty Bottle's intimate stage, and you're getting a rare chance to watch this multi-instrumentalist work his magic live—expect intricate layering, real instruments colliding with dusty vinyl textures, and the kind of late-night groove that makes you forget what time it is. Ukrainian Village's legendary venue has built its reputation on hosting artists who actually push boundaries rather than just claim to, and Younge's the type of performer who validates that taste. Doors open Friday, May 29; bring your ID (21+).
