X
In the late 1970s, X shoved Los Angeles punk rock into the international eye with its blend of raw speed, taut riffs and the voluble sparring of the singers John Doe and Exene Cervenka. Their vitriol has barely aged a day. At City Winery, they perform their first four albums in full and sequentially, one per night: “Los Angeles,” “Wild Gift,” “Under the Big Black Sun,” and “More Fun in the New World.” Experience the passion in sharing wine, music, and the culinary arts.
