Cave In, Mutoid Man, and Old Man Gloom frontman Stephen Brodsky has announced a short run of West Coast acoustic shows for February, bringing his stripped-down hardcore cover performances to California. They are:
2/5 San Diego, CA Whistle Stop
2/6 Los Angeles, CA Harvard & Stone
2/7 Costa Mesa, CA Wayfarer
Throughout the past year, Brodsky has been releasing a steady stream of acoustic covers focusing on hardcore and post-hardcore classics from the 1990s, offering raw, minimal reinterpretations of songs originally performed by bands such as Snapcase, Converge, Into Another, and more.
Those recordings were ultimately compiled into Cut To The Core Vol. 1, which Brodsky released on Halloween 2024. The collection highlights a more intimate and reflective side of material typically known for its aggression, stripping the songs down to their emotional and melodic foundations.
