Its success led to continued monthly programming and subse quent events in New York\, Miami\, and at SXSW in Austin. In 2025\, the se ries has evolved into an international event\, with its first European pro gram scheduled for Rome\, Italy. Over time\, Weird Music Night has establi shed itself as a platform bridging experimental music\, performance art\, and visual culture.\n\n \;\n\nMISSION STATEMENT\n Weird Music Night is committed to presenting sound-based practices and interdisciplinary perfo rmance in contexts that encourage experimentation and critical engagement. The series provides a space for musicians\, artists\, and audiences to en counter unconventional forms of expression\, emphasizing process\, collabo ration\, and the productive instability of live performance.\n\n \;\n\ nPERFORMERS\n\nANDREI JAY\nRIC ROYER\nM0.iré\nSPYRODON\nSKULLTOWER 4E\nPE RVERT SAVANT\nA.I.
