House Show

Image with the words "House Show" written over a blurred scene of people with colorful lighting.

From the first shot of House Show, you’re immersed in the sights, sounds, mood, and music of an idealized underground scene. As you bounce from bedrooms to the bathroom, back-porch smoke spot to a dank basement stage, it almost feels like you’re the one introducing an uninitiated friend to house-show culture. Director Price Robideaux brings an obvious passion for the form to give audiences a candid glimpse into the dynamic world of DIY concerts — familiar and nostalgic for the old heads, while intriguing and unforgettable for the new.
