Bob Mould and Rich Morel
Legendary gay punk rocker and former D.C. resident Bob Mould is nothing if not prolific. In June, he released his fourth solo album in only the past six years (and 11th solo set in a 31-year-career that includes additional releases as part of three bands). And just as every time before, Mould hits the 9:30 Club as part of a national tour — only this outing, promoting Beauty and Ruin with his bandmates bassist Jason Narducy and drummer Jon Wurster, won’t end with a round of Blowoff. But dancing bears, take heart: that very night, Mould’s former partner-in-Blowoff Rich Morel offers another iteration of his Hot Sauce party in the downstairs Backstage space at the Black Cat. Surely Mould will stop by too — and maybe Morel will even let him have a spin at the turntable.
Mould performs Saturday, Sept. 6. Doors at 6 p.m. Nightclub 9:30, 815 V St. NW. Tickets are $25. Call 202-265-0930 or visit 930.com.
Rich Morel’s Hot Sauce is Saturday, Sept. 6. Doors at 10 p.m. Black Cat Backstage, 1811 14th St. NW. Tickets are $5. Call 202-667-4490 or visit blackcatdc.com.
