Baltimore's Vibes, 7 Days a Week
Tuesday's the "ease into it" night, Baltimore, and tonight's a good one to ease into: Polish dream-pop act Łaszewo rolls through on the Breakaway Tour (plot twist: not where you think), Baltimore Artists Against Apartheid co-presents a Bread & Puppet documentary with a panel discussion, and the Charles Village Chess Club is holding court at Max's like every Tuesday. 20 events, one venue-relocation mystery solved. Let's go.
🎵 Music & Nightlife
Łaszewo: Road To Breakaway Tour (18+) @ Nevermore Hall
Heads up: three different listings still have this one pinned to Baltimore Soundstage — it moved. Polish electro-pop outfit Łaszewo hits Power Plant Live's Nevermore Hall instead, doors and show at 8 PM, 18+.
Filthy Mittens @ Cat's Eye Pub
Fells Point's blues-rock-jazz dive gets a power trio tonight — Carl Hupp (Atomic Funk, Drunken Uncles) leading it, Dylan and Jason Kendall of Experience filling it out. 8 PM, no cover, the way a Tuesday night out should be.
Bright Moments Jam Session @ Keystone Korner
Baltimore and DC's jazz community turns out for this one, led by Obasi Akoto. Horns, ringers, and whoever wants to sit in — 7 to 10 PM at the city's real jazz room.
Old Time & Bluegrass Jam @ The Bluebird
A standing Tuesday tradition — Ken & Brad Kolodner and Alex Lacquement rotate hosting the old-time and bluegrass jams week to week. Free, all ages, doors around 7 PM. Bring an instrument or just your ears.
Spirit World @ Upstairs at the Ottobar
Doors 9 PM, 21+, in the room upstairs from the main stage. Low-key way to close out a Tuesday if the jam sessions aren't your speed.
Tuesday Jazz Affair @ Bloom's (inside Hotel Ulysses)
Every Tuesday, 7 to 10 PM, no cover — a standing jazz night in the cocktail lounge at Mount Vernon's Hotel Ulysses. Good excuse for a proper drink on a school night.
🎤 Comedy
Best on Broadway @ The Port Comedy Club
Doors 8:30 PM, show 9 PM, free, 21+. It's the only comedy on the board tonight — Highwire, Magooby's, and Baltimore Comedy Factory are all dark — so if you want to laugh out loud in public, this is your one shot.
🎨 Arts & Culture
"Iron War Horses: B&O's Support of American Troops Abroad" Tour @ B&O Railroad Museum
A guided public tour on how the B&O Railroad supported American troops abroad, running twice today — 10:30 AM and 1 PM. Included with regular museum admission.
"Nothing Much: An Original Musical" @ Le Mondo
Baltimore Youth Theater Company's original musical spin on Much Ado About Nothing. Bar opens 7 PM, curtain 7:30 PM, $15.
Ashanti Alston Presents "Anarchist Panther" in Conversation w/ Ría Thompson-Washington @ Red Emma's

Black Artist Fair @ Shake & Bake Family Fun Center
Monthly networking night for Black artists — headshots, a panel discussion, community. 6 PM. (Price wasn't posted; check the event page.)
🎬 Screen Time
"An Artist Responds to War" @ Black Cherry Puppet Theater
A 45-minute film on Peter Schumann and Bread & Puppet Theater, followed by a panel moderated by Valeska Populoh. Co-presented with Baltimore Artists Against Apartheid. Doors 6:30 PM, film 7 PM, $15.
⚾ Sports & Outdoors
UMBC Men's Soccer vs. Howard @ Retriever Soccer Park
The Orioles are in Queens tonight and the Ravens don't play till Sunday, so this is the pick: UMBC hosts Howard, 7 PM, at Retriever Soccer Park in Catonsville. Real college soccer, real home crowd, real cheap ticket.
🦀 Community, Food & Family
MAX LVL Chess Club @ Max's Taphouse
The Charles Village Chess Club runs it down every Tuesday, 6 to 9 PM, free, all levels. Fells Point, a board, and however many beers you want to nurse through a slow endgame.

⭐ Our Bonus Pick
Łaszewo: Road To Breakaway Tour — Nevermore Hall, 8 PM, 18+ — direct link above
Three separate listings in our own scaffold had this one dying to send you to the wrong building tonight. Baltimore Soundstage's own site set the record straight — the show moved to Nevermore Hall over at Power Plant Live — and we're passing the correction along before you show up to the wrong marquee. The music itself is worth the detour: Polish outfit Łaszewo make the kind of shimmering, melancholy dream-pop that's tailor-made for a Tuesday-night reset. Doors and show both at 8, 18+, and you'll be one of the few people in the building who actually knew where to go.
That's a Wrap!
That's your Tuesday, Baltimore — a venue mystery solved, a chess board waiting at Max's, and a jazz set with your name on it whether you're at Keystone Korner or Bloom's. Wednesday's shaping up loud: early supply numbers already show 30+ music events on the board. See you then.
Until then: yodel it from the rooftops. 🗣️⛰️
