NEWARK, NJ and NEW YORK, NY – April 8, 2025 – Audible, Inc., the leading creator and provider of premium audio storytelling, today announced that Andrew Bird and drummer Nate Smith will appear as special guest artists on Friday, April 11 for the sixth and final performance of The Energy Curfew Music Hour Season 2. Featuring the Grammy Award-winning band Punch Brothers, fronted by singer-mandolinist Chris Thile, the musical variety show’s second season will again be recorded live at Audible’s Minetta Lane Theatre and later released as an Audible Original, extending their reach to millions of listeners around the world.
Created by Chris Thile and Claire Coffee and hosted by Thile and his fellow Punch Brothers (Brittany Haas, Noam Pikelny, Chris Eldridge, and Paul Kowert), The Energy Curfew Music Hour is a musical variety show that invites audiences to join them in a near future when diminishing resources and extreme weather have ushered in a worldwide effort to ration electricity. America has instituted a weekly “energy curfew” where the power grid goes down completely and we all live electricity-free for 24 hours. The Energy Curfew Music Hour hits the airwaves an hour before the lights go out while the nation tunes in and turns off together before the Dark Day.
