Concert by the emo and sad punk band Mom Jeans, with support from Harrison Gordon and Sobs, at Showbox SoDo.
Mom Jeans play Showbox SoDo on Sunday, October 18, with Harrison Gordon and Sobs opening. It's an all-ages show, so you can bring whoever you want, though you'll need to be 21 and over to drink.
Mom Jeans are a group of friends from the Bay Area, hailing from Berkeley, California, with Eric, Bart, Austin, and Sam at the helm. They describe themselves as having a love for sad punk and emo, and they've built a reputation on stream-of-consciousness lyrics and energetic live shows. They talk about trading the sappy for the heartfelt and the melodramatic for the truthful, and they describe the result as a brand of emo that's self-aware without being self-indulgent.
That's the kind of thing that usually plays out in the set: the lyrics tend to wander and ramble rather than stick to a tight hook, and the energy stays high throughout. It's a good fit for a Sunday night if you're in the mood for something that leans into the emo side of things. Harrison Gordon and Sobs open the bill, so the night starts well before Mom Jeans take the stage.
