Irata (Album Release Show) w/ Gray Young + Nathan Arizona & The New Mexicans

At Flat Iron, Irata marks the release of Human alongside Gray Young and Nathan Arizona & The New Mexicans. Founded in 2007 by Jon Case and Jason Ward, the band has continually reshaped its heavy rock identity while keeping a mesmerizing lock between bass and drums. After releasing Tower in 2019 as a four-piece, Irata is now a trio pushing into fresh territory. Human builds on the elements behind many of their enduring songs, from rumbling bass lines and trance-like drums to sweeping choruses, balancing refinement with raw expression. "Altar" opens with measured patience, a clear melodic thread runs through all eight tracks, and songs like "Slipped" and the expansive closer "Daystar" deepen the atmosphere without losing an organic pulse. In an age of machine-made art, the record stands as a human statement centered on vocal melody and intricate riffing, moving like two halves of one image from final reflections toward a transformed beginning. The album was recorded with longtime friends Hunter Allen and Adam Joyce of The Bronzed Chorus at Amplified Acres and mixed by J. Robbins at The Magpie Cage. Tickets are $15, with day-of entry priced at $20.
