Bob Mould at Brooklyn Steel (February 21, 2019)

Photos by Matt Esposito

Earlier this month saw Hüsker Dü/Sugar’s Bob Mould return with his 13th solo album Sunshine Rock, which was released via Merge Records. Last Thursday night Mould and his longtime backing duo of Jason Narducy and Jon Wurster returned to New York for a headlining performance at Brooklyn Steel, his first show here since they played at Webster Hall back in 2016.

Our photographer Matt Esposito was there to capture photos from their performance, along with openers Titus Andronicus, all of which can be found it the photo gallery below, along with Mould’s setlist.
