Considering a high-energy show to kick off your workweek? Australian punk rock band The Living End has you covered as they take the stage at the Rock and Roll Hotel on Monday, November 14. They’ve been around for a while, originally forming in 1994, but they prove that they still have it with the release of their latest album “Shift.” With influences such as The Clash, The Who, and Rancid, this is bound to be a great way to start the week.

On Tuesday, November 15, the Alt Nation Advanced Placement tour rocks the house at U Street Music Hall.

This all adds up to a night of high energy that will leave you humming melodies hours after the show is over. Buy tickets here.

If alternative rock isn’t your thing, head on over to the Rock and Roll Hotel on November 15 to experience the captivating vocals of Gavin James. This Irish singer-songwriter has opened for big name musicians like Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, and James Blunt all prior to the release of his first studio album, “Bitter Pill.” James has gained recognition for his seemingly effortless smooth falsetto vocals paired with his trusty acoustic guitar.
