NIGHT and DAY: A Farewell Tour and Festival of Nations
NIGHT
ALBANY — Jimkata will perform for the last time at The Hollow on Thursday, Oct. 26, at 8 p.m.
Say goodbye to the electronic rock trio, Jimkata. These boyhood friends out of Utica announced earlier this year they would be walking away, but not before having developed a strong following in upstate New York. The band is now in the midst of a seven-stop farewell tour across New York, with a final show in New York City Saturday, Oct. 28.
The Late Shift starts the evening off. This Albany band reached the finals of WEQX’s Battle of the Bands in a summer competition to open Pearlpalooza.
Tickets are $15 at the door. For information, call (518) 426-8550, or visit https://www.thehollow.com.
