The Kilans

At DC9 Nightclub

Northwest Washington, Washington

Head to the rooftop bar for an appetizer or a drink before the show.
Reviewers note that sold-out shows can feel cramped in the multi-level space.

Emerging from Salt Lake City, the four-piece indie-rock band fills DC9 Nightclub with guitar-driven energy and introspective songwriting, featuring tracks from their growing catalog including "Why Is It Light Out?," "Curly," "Crawl" and "Red Couch."
