CMJ Day 2

Call it the Park Slope edition.

Here's a sampling of the CMJ showcases happening at Union Hall, Rock Shop, and Bell House (OK, that one's Gowanus),  to make your hopping around a little bit easier.

Union Hall
702 Union St. near Fifth Avenue, (718) 638-4400

Start the night off at Union Hall, where buzzed-about Ontario band brings their fuzzed out '90s throwback to the small stage, playing the venue's early show with Soft Reeds and Dear Comrade. Doors at 7 pm.

Rock Shop
249 Fourth Ave. between President and Carroll streets, (718) 230-5740

Then, head on over to the Rock Shop, where the lo-fi, Brooklyn-based act Beach Fossils headline the Forcefield showcase. Also on the bill are Cloud Nothings, Braids, Blair, Lesands, and Tape Deck Mountain.

The Bell House
149 Seventh St. between Second and Third avenues, (718) 643-6510

End your night at the Bell House, where UK tastemakers Popjustice have pulled together a lineup of pop, including Fenech Soler and their infectious synth-pop tunes. Special guests and DJs will also help you boogie late into the night.
