Will Nick Shrubsole save your sanity over Thanksgiving with folk-punk? Maybe

From breakdowns both personal and interpersonal since election day, Thanksgiving’s gonna be all sorts of uncomfortable this year. Rather than burying your resentment in turkey and stuffing, you could instead purge your soul with the proven combination of alcohol and folk punk.

Although now a local, Nick Shrubsole is the former lead singer of 2000s Canadian punk band Broadcast Zero. Solo, he translates that fire into rousing, pub-ready acoustic anthems that turn the everyday toil of life into shared catharsis.

Also trying to make sense of this cruel, shitty world will be local folk punks Dougie Flesh and the Slashers.

8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 28, Lil Indie’s, no cover. [location-1]
