A Murder of Crows is a gothic and post-punk festival held in New York City since 2015. It books goth, deathrock and darkwave acts that mainstream promoters tend to overlook, plus DJ sets from the city's dark alternative club scene. Founded by promoter Sean Templar, it started as one night at Mercury Lounge and grew into a multi-night weekend centered on the Bowery Ballroom. It is usually held at the end of summer.
