Magnificent Danger and DiscoCactus: The Blue Shell Tour @ Cantab Lounge Underground

We're coming home for a stop of the BLUE SHELL TOUR! Our hometown show (at least hometown for some of us) will be supported by Targus Targus. Get your tickets now for a thrilling night of VGM!

Magnificent Danger is an energetic collective of brass and percussion dishing out funky mashups of iconic tunes from your favorite video games and anime. Their mixture of big band, New Orleans second line, riot jazz, funk, and hip-hop creates a bizarre but danceable party appreciated by musicians and nerds alike.

DiscoCactus is a collective of arrangers, composers and performers that specializes in creative arrangements of video game soundtracks that blur the lines between contemporary art music and pop culture.
Combining classical training with fearless improvisation, DC is a genre-bending experience that everyone from hardcore gamers to casual observers, can explore and enjoy. 

Targus Targus, a staple in the Boston Synth scene, is an all live, high energy, instrumental band that sounds like video game music mixed with vaporwave. Led by Dave Holmes on Synths with Jon Zonenshine on Keys, Evan O'Connor on EWI, Jake Gabriszeski on drums, and Nate Nemitz on percussion.
