Red Vox is one of the strangest success stories in current rock: a psych-tinged band whose frontman built a devoted audience streaming video games, now selling out real rooms on the strength of the songs. Music Hall of Williamsburg holds about 550 people over two levels, which puts the balcony practically on top of the stage and makes crowd-to-band feedback loops immediate. If you want to see what a fanbase built entirely online looks like when it shows up in person, this is the show.
What to expect
A standing general-admission floor with a wraparound balcony above it, both close to the stage. Expect a devoted, singing-along crowd rather than a casual one. The venue runs on time and sets typically wrap before the L gets ugly.
Good to know
- The L to Bedford Avenue is one block from the door
- Balcony sightlines are excellent if the floor looks too tight
- It is a Bowery Presents room, so doors and set times run close to schedule
- Bags are checked at the door; travel light
- North 6th Street has plenty of food before the show
- The L back to Manhattan runs late but check for weekend service changes
