About

Who's playing
Sweet Pill is a Philadelphia-based band whose music draws from emo, indie rock, pop-punk and hardcore. The group released its debut full-length, “Where the Heart Is,” before signing with Hopeless Records and returning with the 2026 album “Still There’s a Glow.”
What to expect
Expect a guitar-forward rock show at Slowdown, with Sweet Pill’s catalog moving between anxious emo-pop hooks, heavier post-hardcore edges and melodic indie-rock dynamics. The Omaha stop is listed as part of the band’s current “Still There’s a Glow” tour run.
Why go
For Omaha listeners who follow modern emo and punk-adjacent rock, Sweet Pill offers a club-scale chance to catch a rising band with a clearly defined sound rather than a nostalgia act. Slowdown’s room is a natural fit for music that relies on close-up energy, shifting dynamics and direct connection with the crowd.
