à La Carte Records Announces 2026 New Colossus Showcase

Since its inception, à La Carte Records has carved out a distinct corner of the underground, championing a specific brand of hazy, guitar-driven atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and vital. This March, the label brings its curated aesthetic to the New Colossus Festival for a label showcase that promises to be one of the week’s most cohesive bills.

On March 7th, the Francis Kite Club in Manhattan will host four of the roster’s most compelling acts. The lineup features the feedback-drenched textures of Welcome Strawberry, the heavy, melodic shoegaze of Doused, and the melancholic, jangly leanings of Bedroom Eyes. Rounding out the night is Plight, whose gritty, emotive sound provides a sharp counterpoint to the evening’s more ethereal moments.

For those navigating the sprawling New Colossus schedule, this showcase offers a rare moment of stylistic focus. The show kicks off at 7:00 PM.
