Turnstile

Turnstile kicked off their fall North American tour Monday (October 3), on a chilly, rain-filled New York City night. Despite the show taking place at outdoor venue Brooklyn Mirage amid downpour and low tempts,  fans came out in droves to support the Baltimore band who are currently touring their boundaryless and brilliant album, 2021’s ‘Glow On’.

“Can’t really put into words how last night made me feel,” frontman Brendan Yates said following the show. “Thank you for sharing a night in the pouring rain. It was needed. To anyone who was there or helped make it happen, thank you.”

Photographer Emilio Herce was on hand to capture all the live action from the gig for NME. Check out the highlights from the band’s drenched and dynamic NYC return below, with quotes from attendees.
