Tricycle, Apollo's Diner & Hooves

Tricycle headlines a genre-crossing night of original local music at Rapscallion Music Hall , with freestyle rap artist Hooves opening the show and North Shore indie-rock five-piece Apollo’s Diner taking the stage second. Tricycle is a three-piece built around guitar, bass, and drums, delivering an eclectic, all-original mix of punk, alternative, metal, and dream pop. Expect heavy riffs, shifting textures, melodic moments, and a set that moves freely between genres without losing its edge. Apollo’s Diner brings beachy North Shore vibes with real rock-and-roll energy. This original five-piece thrives on playing live, blending indie-rock hooks, guitars, keys, layered vocals, and a full-band drive. After recently sharing a bill with Tricycle at BareWolf Brewing in Amesbury, Apollo’s Diner made a strong impression and helped pack the room. Opening the night, Hooves brings sharp freestyle skills, original energy, and a unique hip-hop presence to the bill. He also guest features on one of Tricycle’s songs, making this a fitting start to a night built around local artists, creative collaboration, and genre-spanning music. All three acts bring original music to the stage, with the occasional cover mixed in. Come out early, stay late, and support three local artists bringing distinct sounds to one stage.
