Directed by Sean Durkin, Tame Impala’s performance premieres following the release of his highly anticipated album, Deadbeat. The Sound Check, directed by Sean Durkin (The Iron Claw, Martha Marcy May Marlene), will feature his first live performance of the album opener “My Old Ways.” The performance film also includes new songs “Loser” and “Dracula.”

Produced by A24, A24 Music and Cherry Lane Theatre, these intimate performances are recorded on the iconic Cherry Lane stage. The series launched last week with a performance from Mark William Lewis, A24 Music’s first signed artist, with direction from Danica Kleinknecht and produced with support by Smuggler. The performances will air on A24’s YouTube channel. More performances are imminent.

Purchased in 2023, the 166-seat theatre has undergone a multi-year renovation with all of its technical equipment having been updated, new seating installed, film projector and screen installed, and the lobby upgraded. As it was once a beloved dining destination, a new addition to the space brings back that tradition with Wild Cherry, a new bar restaurant from Lee Hanson and Riad Nasr, the team behind Frenchette, Le Rock, and Le Veau d’Or, who were recently named Outstanding Restaurateur by the James Beard Awards. The theatre’s iconic stage and historic details remain intact.
