Forget the polished, predictable stage—Friday nights at Afterglow are for the raw, unfiltered energy of our Live Music Nights. Fuel up with a drink and get lost in the grit and soul of the performance as Reggie Headen and Nighttime Noon takes over the space to redefine the sound of The Radical.
REGGIE HEADEN AND NIGHTTIME NOON forge soul, rock, and punk into fearless collision. The lyrics cut deep—exploring invisibility, hypocrisy, rage, and the raw truth of being an outsider. Rooted in The Stooges’ primal danger and the uncompromising spirit of PJ Harvey, Patti Smith, Thin Lizzy, and Grace Jones, they invite you into the disruption you’ve been craving.
This is an invitation for your whole humanity to be fully realized. Joy, anguish, grief, and love—all have their place. Here, darkness transmutes into essence. This is your evolution.
Nighttime Noon—where opposites don’t just coexist, they combust. Theatre meets punk meets jazz, creating heat where there should only be contradiction.
Andy Burns on lead guitar is simply why the band sounds the way it does. His playing has grit, feeling, and something else-that’s harder to name.
Quinn Sternberg on bass has a gift for finding exactly the right space. His playing is generous and grounded.
Joe Esposito on drums is detail-obsessed in the best way. Fast when it needs to be fast, sensitive when it needs to breathe.
Reggie Headen on vocals learned a long time ago that nothing is wasted. Not the rage, not the failure, not the grief — and not the joy, the love, or the audacity either. He brings all of it to the stage. And somehow makes you feel like yours belongs there too.
