Open Mike Eagle w/ Kenny Segal

Tue, Oct 13, 2026at 7:00 PM
540 Penn Street Northeast, Washington, DC
$20-$22
Featuring: Open Mike Eagle, Kenny Segal

Open Mike Eagle headlines an art-rap and experimental hip-hop performance with Los Angeles producer and multi-instrumentalist Kenny Segal, joined by supporting act Dice Raw. Eagle’s work blends sharp socio-political observation, surrealism, self-deprecating humor, and forward-looking production. His music has earned attention from Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, and NPR, along with headlining tours and appearances at events such as the Adult Swim Festival.

Eagle has released more than a dozen solo and collaborative projects. His albums include *Dark Comedy*, which examines subjects such as smartphone dependence and the challenges of independent music in the streaming era, and *Brick Body Kids Still Daydream*, an exploration of family history and the demolished Robert Taylor Homes in Chicago. His later records *Anime, Trauma, and Divorce* and *Neighborhood Gods Unlimited* take a more personal and autobiographical approach, with the latter structured around an unrealized television concept complete with an opening theme, flashbacks, a climax, and commercials. Eagle also co-created *The New Negroes*, a variety show combining stand-up and music with Baron Vaughn that appeared at Upright Citizens Brigade, on Comedy Central, and at venues around the country.

Kenny Segal is described as a longtime presence in Los Angeles’s underground music scene whose tactile, unusual, melodic production has shaped independent rap and experimental music. His collaborations include work with billy woods and K-the-I???, as well as the jazz trio Human Error Club and indie rocker Benjamin Booker. The page also connects his work on *DOOMED!* with Mike Eagle’s fractured, romantic postmortem.
