Vesuvian / Sexfaces / Teen Cobra / The Armors

On Sunday, July 19, 2026, Rhizome DC hosts a four-band lineup of punk and garage rock spanning Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. The evening brings together the classic rock–infused punk of Vesuvian, the scuzzy Velvet Underground– and Fall–channeling noise of Sexfaces, the lo-fi garage punk duo Teen Cobra, and the glam-tinged rock 'n' roll of The Armors. Doors open at 6:00 PM with music starting at 7:00 PM, and tickets are priced at $15–20.

Showtimes: Music begins at 7:00 PM; the event runs until roughly 10:00 PM. (Specific set times are not provided, but the overall schedule is doors 6, music 7, end 10.)

Tickets: $15–20 at the door. Advance ticket purchase is available via the "TICKETS" link on the event page.

Lineup: Vesuvian (Philadelphia), Sexfaces (DC), Teen Cobra (DC), The Armors (DC). Vesuvian is a group of punks playing classic rock; their self-titled album was released in May 2026 on Worry Bead Records. Sexfaces are a DC band described as channeling the Velvet Underground, The Fall, The Damned, and Royal Trux through a punked-up, nihilistic lens; their debut full-length *BAD VIBES OST* was recorded in April 2024. The band features Jacky Cougar on drums, Sal Go on guitar, Hana Racecar on viola, and Neil Cobra on bass. Teen Cobra is a Venezuelan-DC lo-fi punk duo formed in 2018 by Neil (guitar, vocals) and Veronica (drums, vocals), drawing from '60s garage, late-'70s CBGB punk, British post-punk, and DIY ethos; they have released two 7-inches, a live cassette, and a full-length LP. The Armors blend classic rock swagger with mid-'70s glam and proto-punk, nodding to DC's Revolution Summer, and are known for a danceable, snarky sound.

Run time: Approximately 4 hours (doors to end).

Ages: Not explicitly stated; Rhizome DC events are typically all-ages unless noted otherwise.

Venue: Rhizome DC, located in Washington, D.C. The venue is an underground event space that also hosts workshops and other shows.

Note: Sexfaces' debut album *BAD VIBES OST* is noted as "full-noise, zero-fluff" and was produced by Ben Schurr. Vesuvian's new album is available on Worry Bead Records. Teen Cobra emphasize minimal instrumentation (a guitar, snare, and floor tom) and a DIY aesthetic. The Armors are carving a path through DC dive bars, record shops, and underground spaces.
