Halfway to Mom’s Basement Fest

Come out for the halfway point to Mom’s Basement Fest on Friday, April 10, and get a taste of what’s coming when the full fest returns in October. This annual punk-focused event from Mom’s Basement Records celebrates bands the label loves, and this spring lineup is stacked with fast hooks, weird charm, and plenty of volume. Tickets are $10 in advance and $20 the day of the show.

The Jasons

Punk rock with a horror-movie grin. The Jasons bring loud, snotty, aggressive energy with just enough camp and satanic-panic absurdity to make the whole thing hit harder and feel even more fun live.

Lustkill

Lustkill deals in bubblegum pop-punk done the right way: fast, punchy, catchy, and built for sing-alongs. Their sound pulls from bands like The Ramones, The Queers, Descendents, and Blink-182, so expect sharp hooks and sugar-rush momentum.

Mummala

Schlock ’n roll from Columbus with a B-movie brain and a garage-punk pulse. Mummala mixes punk, garage, surf, and cartoon creepiness into something rowdy, goofy, and tailor-made for a fest like this. :

Gatlin

Gatlin calls it 1.21 gigawatt punk rock, which tells you most of what you need to know. Fast, wired, and ready to rip, they round out the bill with another jolt of Ohio punk.

Tickets: $10 advance / $20 day of show
