That Handsome Devil is one of those bands where every show feels like stumbling into something you were not supposed to see, something secret and strange and impossible to look away from. On May 1, 2026, they bring their genre-defying madness to Rec Room in Buffalo, and your Friday night just got significantly weirder in the best possible way.
About That Handsome Devil
That Handsome Devil is genuinely hard to describe, which is part of the appeal. They blend rock, hip-hop, cabaret, electronic, and whatever else strikes their fancy into a sound that is entirely their own and utterly impossible to categorize. Frontman Godforbid brings a theatrical, slightly menacing presence to the stage that commands attention from the first note, and the music swings from danceable grooves to dark, spoken-word intensity without any warning. They have been an underground favorite for years among people who like their music unpredictable and their live shows genuinely surprising. If you have never heard them, go in blind. Trust me, it is better that way because no description can prepare you.
The Venue
Rec Room in Buffalo is versatile enough to handle whatever That Handsome Devil decides to throw at it, and they will test that versatility thoroughly. The 300-capacity room on Elmwood has the sound quality to capture the band’s genre-hopping production style, and the intimate setting means the theatrical elements of their show land with maximum impact on every person in the room. This is a venue that handles weird well, which is a genuine compliment, and That Handsome Devil is going to push that capability in the most entertaining direction possible.

That Handsome Devil is for people who are bored by predictable shows and conventional music. If you want safe and predictable, go see a cover band at a brewery down the street.

Buffalo, it is time to get weird and embrace it.
