Safe Word, Gay Death, HauntedPixel, Fierce Diety, Jaycie Carver
Get ready for a wild night of Austin alt-club energy when Safe Word, Gay Death, HauntedPixel, Fierce Diety, and Jaycie Carver take over this Red River stage. This one brings together heavy-hitting queer-forward acts, glitchy textures, dark club moods, and big, theatrical live energy all on the same bill.
Expect a packed room, flashing lights, and a crowd that’s there to sweat, scream, and dance. The lineup leans into edgy electronic, rock-adjacent intensity, and experimental sounds, so it’s perfect if you like your live music loud, strange, and unapologetically queer.
- Catch multiple underground acts in one night, from dark dance beats to high-drama vocals and guitar-driven chaos.
- Hang with a queer-friendly crowd that treats the dance floor like a community space as much as a party.
- Great option if you want something louder and weirder than a standard bar show, but still totally come-as-you-are.
- Come early if you want to explore openers, or drop in later for peak-energy sets and a fully warmed-up room.
If you’re into discovering new artists before they blow up, love queer nightlife, or just want a high-energy show with big personality, this lineup is a solid bet for an unforgettable night out.
