The Deafening Tickets

Formed in New York in 2008, The Deafening is a four-piece rock outfit blending glam swagger with bluesy grit and horror-punk theatrics. The lineup features Lena Hall on vocals, Burt Rock on guitar, Dylan Doyle on bass, and Mick Harrison on drums. They released their debut/only full-length album, Central Booking, on December 15, 2012, self-released on an independent label. The Deafening’s sound nods to classic rock giants and punk theatrics—think Guns N' Roses meets The Misfits with a theatrical twist.

Listeners can expect high-energy live shows and a strong stage presence that captures the era-spanning influences fueling their music. Lena Hall later earned a Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Musical in 2014 for Hedwig and the Angry Inch, highlighting the individual artistry inside the band. For fans and new listeners, The Deafening represents a cross between intimate club gigs and larger, show-stopping performances.

For fans exploring the band, The Deafening maintains a Bandcamp page with links to Facebook and Twitter, offering a window into their indie release and ongoing creative projects. While 2025 tour activity isn’t confirmed, the group’s history includes notable 2015–2016 NYC coverage, including features from Time Out and TheaterMania after their Highline Ballroom appearance. If you’re looking to secure someone involved in NYC’s rock narrative, The Deafening remains a notable entry in the glam/blues-punk scene.
