21+ night of DIY pop and improvisation headlined by Dent May, with Chevalier Figure and jaro, at The Drunken Unicorn.
Dent May plays The Drunken Unicorn on Thursday, October 22, with Chevalier Figure and jaro opening. The night is presented by Triple D's Productions and The Drunken Unicorn Speakeasy, and it's 21+.
May describes his music as carrying an "ecstatic melancholy" — bittersweet, exuberant songs that break your heart as you sing along. On his latest, The Big One, he stepped away from his solo bedroom process for spontaneous sessions at Honeymoon Suite with a rotating cast of friends. The result blends DIY pop with '70s songwriter warmth, and he leans into improvisation, community, and what he calls a cautious optimism. It's a shift from the more solitary way he used to record, and that communal spirit comes through in the songs.

Chevalier Figure and jaro round out the bill, so there are three acts to work through before the night wraps. Doors open at 8 PM, and the show runs through 11:59 PM, which gives plenty of room for all three to get their full sets in. Tickets are $20 to $25.
