Medium Build Presents The King of Having Fun on Tour

The Read

Medium Build works in the confessional end of indie pop — big choruses, a voice that cracks where it should, songs that put the uncomfortable specifics right in the first verse. The live show leans hard on the performer’s relationship with the room rather than on production; it is a project that has grown mostly by word of mouth from people who left shows feeling implicated. Brooklyn Bowl is a big, loose room, and this kind of set benefits from a crowd standing shoulder to shoulder rather than seated politely. Friday night, eight o’clock, a bill that will probably include more talking between songs than most. If the tour title reads as a dare, the show is where it gets tested.

The Room

Brooklyn Bowl

925 3rd Ave N

A Germantown venue where national touring acts share a building with bowling, food, and enough logistical ease to make group-night planning simple.
