Joyce Manor at The Jefferson Theater 8/17

Hailing from Torrance, California, pop-punk purveyors Joyce Manor have been peddling sounds from the softer side of the hardcore spectrum since 2008. The trio of singer-songwriter and guitarist Barry Johnson, guitarist Chase Knobbe, and bassist/backing vocalist Matt Ebert have employed a rotating cast of percussionists throughout the band’s history. The group teamed up with punk-rock royalty Brett Gurewitz of Bad Religion to produce its latest album for Epitaph Records. Glitterer and FFO Chillin perform in support. $42.25, 8pm. The Jefferson Theater, 110 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. jeffersontheater.com
