Tucker Pillsbury's rise from bedroom-pop uploads to a headline night at Radio City has happened at speed, and the Chuck era is where the songs finally match the venue - big choruses built for a room with 6,000 seats and a proscenium arch. Samia opens, which is a genuine double bill rather than a courtesy slot; her writing is sharper and stranger than the support billing suggests.

What to expect

A seated Art Deco hall rather than a general-admission floor, so you will be in an assigned spot for the whole night. Samia plays first, then a full headline production. Radio City's sightlines are good almost everywhere, and the building itself - the 1932 interior, the Great Stage - is part of the evening. Expect a young, loud, word-perfect crowd.

Good to know

  • Radio City is a fully seated venue, so your ticket is a specific seat rather than floor space.
  • The entrance is on Sixth Avenue between 50th and 51st Streets, at the Rockefeller Center subway complex.
  • Samia opens; arriving at doors is worth it if you want the full bill.
  • The venue runs bag-size restrictions and metal detection at entry, so allow time in the line.
  • The surrounding Rockefeller Center blocks get very congested on a Friday night - budget extra travel time.
