The band Horsegirl performed a secret show under the pseudonym Danger Boss at Lower Manhattan's Night Club 101, debuting new and unfinished material from an upcoming untitled record.
On May 5, the trio, performing under the name “ Danger Boss ,” brought songs both new and old to the low-key New York venue. Last night , Indianapolis ragtag rockers Good Flying Birds played a rowdy headlining set at Lower Manhattan’s Night Club 101 .
Unfortunately, it ended with vocalist and tambourine player Susie Slaughter getting hit in the head by a swinging speaker during a particularly wild push pit . Supporting Good Flying Birds were local post-punk outfit Debris Bardot and a new band called Danger Boss, who turned out to be the Chicago-bred rock trioA quick word about so-called “secret” shows: Does it really count as a secret show if the band’s true identity is revealed in the venue’sback in January .
I’m all for dropping hints, but if the show is supposed to be an if-you-know-you-know type of event, let’s at leastAnyway, I was not surprised to see Nora Cheng, Penelope Lowenstein, and Gigi Reece take the stage, but I was delighted. The trio opened with “In Twos,” an earworm off their excellent 2025 record, before diving into “Rock City,” which began with Cheng taping down one of the keys on her keyboard to sustain a single, ominous note for the song’s duration.
The set consisted oftracks and some “new” and “borderline unfinished” material from the untitled, unannounced Horsegirl record that Cheng, Lowenstein, and Reece are currently working on. From the sounds of it, their jagged, primitive, minimalistic style remains but has begun spiraling into looser, more jam-based structures—at least in the current iteration of these songs.
“If I don’t write a novel soon / I might be through / With every word I’ve said,” Cheng sang on one of the new songs. Here’s hoping that we hear more from her and the rest of the Horsegirl gang soon.
In addition to unreleased material and cuts fromcenterpiece—a surprisingly rollicking end to an otherwise mellow set. As intriguing as the teasers were, it was nice to see Horsegirl let one of the old favorites rip.
