Sunday

You Me At Six at 9:30 Club

English rock band You Me At Six will showcase its newest album “VI,” which branches out from the band’s traditional genre of emo-rock, on Sunday at the 9:30 Club. The band will likely play hits like “I O U” and “Back Again” from its most recent album, which was released in October. Songs from the new album range from emo-rock to inspirational pop, which gives You Me At Six a completely new sound. Alternative-rock band Dreamers and indie band Machineheart will be performing along with the headliner for a night filled with hard-hitting jams and soft-indie tunes.

9:30 Club, 815 V St. NW. Doors at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20.
