Poperratic is playing its first-ever live show ever in New York City on January 23, 2026, at The Delancey. Located on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, the Delancey is one of NYC’s hottest nightclubs. I’ll be joined by some incredible guests for this special occasion, helping me to bring the music to life with a more full, vibrant sound and energy.

We're celebrating by capturing the entire set for a live album recorded directly from the soundboard by The Delancey’s engineer. We’d love to include everyone who wants to be a part of it, regardless of your location—here are simple ways for you to get involved in advance of the show:

Our animated music video Poperratic: Zero Hero has become an official selection of the Klein Film Festival. The festival itself will take place October 16-19, 2025 and the program announcement will drop on October 2nd at https://kleinfilmfestival.com/

Klein’s approach as a film and music festival is to seek bold concepts and approaches. Out of 500 submissions, it selects only 50 films for screening. The festival is held in Vukovar, Croatia and is named in honor of Hugo Klein, a theater professor, theorist and psychiatrist who was born in Vukovar. Currently in its 4th year, Klein draws an audience of about 1,000 attendees.

The festival will be held at Vukovar Municipal Museum at Castle Eltz. Founded in 1948, the museum displays Vukovar's history, modern Croatian art, and a collection of modern Croatian and European art.

"Zero Hero" has been nominated as a Finalist for "Best Music Video" by the East Village New York Film Festival. The festival is run by FRIGID NY, a non-profit theatre company. Screenings are held at Under St. Marks Theatre—since the 1970s, USMT has been a popular off-Broadway venue on NYC's Lower East Side.
