Nitehawk and Noisey present a one night Music Driven screening of live performances by the legendary hardcore band THE BAD BRAINS. Featuring very special guest Darryl Jenifer for a Q&A with Sacha Jenkins!

The Bad Brains are one of the best punk/hardcore bands to emerge out of the United States (specifically Washington, D.C.) in the late 1970s. Charged with energy, political messages, and of course the PMA, they were pioneers in the punk/hardcore/reggae music scene. Don’t miss our screening of legendary New York performances by the band in the two films: My Picture in the Movies, Baby (1979) and Live at CBGB (1982). You’ll yearn for the days when music was this fantastic…and positive.

Music Driven is presented in partnership with Noisey. Featuring Absolut Vodka cocktails.
