Lollapalooza is only a few weeks out, and so many artists on the festival’s lineup are stopping in Indy this summer! MOKB Presents is beyond stoked to be hosting these shows at HI-FI, HI-FI Annex, and Nickel Plate District Amphitheater. Whether the band is making a stop on their way to Chicago or continuing their tour on that festival high, you won’t want to miss these shows. So, check out this list of future Lollapalooza alumni, and get the chance to see them here in Indy!
bôa – Monday, August 4th, HI-FI Annex
UK-based band bôa made an unexpected global impact when their dreamy 1998 track Duvet, the iconic opening theme for the cult anime Serial Experiments Lain, resurfaced and exploded on TikTok, soundtracking millions of introspective edits and moody late-night spirals. Blending trip-hop, alt-rock, and shoegaze textures, bôa’s sound feels timeless yet eerily current, like a forgotten ’90s memory beamed into the now. With Duvet introducing a whole new generation to their haunting vibe, bôa’s live shows hit even harder; intimate, immersive, and emotionally loaded.
julie – Monday, August 4th, HI-FI
Support: Lowertown
Emerging from the murky edges of LA’s underground, julie crafts a world where shoegaze, noise, and post-hardcore collide in perfect disarray. With blown-out riffs, ghostly vocals, and visuals that feel like found footage of a forgotten dream, they’ve built a cult following by doing everything their own way: lo-fi, low-key, and loud as hell. julie isn’t just a band; they’re a mood, a memory, and a movement. Live, they blur the line between concert and catharsis, and once you’re in it, there’s no coming back.
Ole 60 – Saturday, September 13th, Nickel Plate District Amphitheater
Support: The Jack Wharff Band, Rob Langdon
With roots tangled in folk tradition and eyes fixed on open skies, Ole 60 weaves stories that linger long after the last chord fades. Their sound is all dusty harmonies, slow-burning melodies, and the kind of lyrics that feel handwritten just for you. Equal parts tender and tough, they carry the spirit of old country into new places; intimate, honest, and quietly powerful. For fans of long roads, lost loves, and songs that sit with you in silence, Ole 60 is the band you didn’t know you needed.
hey, nothing – Wednesday, October 1st, HI-FI
Support: Hotel Fiction
Equal parts vulnerability and venom, hey, nothing crafts songs that feel like ripped pages from a diary set on fire. With sharp lyricism, dynamic shifts, and a sound that swerves from soft melancholy to full-throttle emotional release, they’re the soundtrack to growing pains and quiet rage. There’s a weight behind every word and a pulse in every pause. It’s not just a set, it’s a shared exorcism. For anyone who’s ever screamed into a pillow or stared too long at the ceiling, hey, nothing gets it.
