Fiddlehead & Schreifel tribute Lou Koller at NYC show

The summer is shaping up to be a sonic adventure, as the band Fiddlehead is hitting the road, bringing their sound and energy to Brooklyn.

Fueling their extended tour, Fiddlehead is supporting their new EP, Baby I’ll Change. Their recent stop on Friday, July 31st, brought a potent mix of nostalgia, tribute, and fresh energy to the stage at Warsaw.

The performance was steeped in reflection, as the night began by honoring the legacy of the late Lou Koller. Adding depth to the evening’s mood was the presence of musician Walter Schreifels, who joined the lineup and contributed to the atmosphere.

Fiddlehead didn’t just pay tribute; they channeled the spirit of their influences by covering a classic track, kicking off the set with the iconic “Clobberin’ Time” from Sick Of It All.

The support lineup was equally compelling. Joining Fiddlehead were Elliott and Posición Unida, creating a diverse tapestry of sound that kept the audience engaged throughout the performance.

Adding another layer of history to the show, Self Defense Family—including Pat Kindlon from Drug Church’s other project—took the stage. This group provided a fresh take with their latest material, including their new single “Reclusion,” which they performed for the first time in five years.

The night was a perfect blend of honoring musical history and celebrating new sounds, proving that live music continues to be a powerful space for tribute and innovation. Fans caught the full experience, marked by dynamic performances from all the artists involved.
