Tony V’s Garage Stacks Three Must-See Shows This Weekend — Your Complete Guide (April 17–19)

Q: What shows are at Tony V’s Garage this weekend in Everett?
A: Tony V’s Garage (1716 Hewitt Ave, Everett, WA 98201) has three back-to-back shows April 17–19, 2026: Tsunami Bomb with Filthy Traitors and The Wreck’d (Fri, 8 PM, $17.85, all ages w/ID), Mistress of Reality all-female Black Sabbath tribute (Sat, 7 PM, $23.18), and RKL with Tony Foresta of Municipal Waste (Sun, 8 PM, $28.52). Tickets on Eventbrite.

Most music weekends ask you to choose. This one doesn’t. From Friday through Sunday, April 17 through 19, Tony V’s Garage at 1716 Hewitt Avenue is hosting three completely different but equally compelling shows — a California punk reunion, an all-female Black Sabbath tribute led by a woman calling herself Madame Ozzy, and one of Southern California hardcore’s most storied bands on what might be their tightest lineup in decades.

The Hewitt Avenue stage rarely gives you three back-to-back nights worth circling on the calendar. This isn’t one of those “pick the best night” situations — this is a full weekend that covers punk history, metal theater, and hardcore legend. Here’s everything you need to know about all three shows.

Friday, April 17 — Tsunami Bomb with Filthy Traitors and The Wreck’d

Show: 8 PM | Doors: 7 PM | Tickets: $17.85 | All ages with ID | 1716 Hewitt Avenue, Everett, WA 98201

Tsunami Bomb was formed in the late 1990s in Northern California, and they spent the early 2000s doing something almost nobody in punk was doing at the time: centering keyboards as a lead instrument, leaning into goth atmosphere, and writing songs that landed somewhere between Bikini Kill and The Misfits with pop hooks sharp enough to cut. Rolling Stone called their 2002 album The Ultimate Escape one of the top 50 pop-punk albums of all time. That’s not throwaway praise.

The band — featuring vocalist Kate Jacobi, keyboardist and co-founder Oobliette Sparks, bassist Dominic Davi, guitarist Andy Pohl, and drummer Gabriel Lindeman — reunited in 2015 and has continued pushing forward. Their 2019 full-length The Spine That Binds on Alternative Tentacles proved they hadn’t softened — they’d evolved. The band is back in the Pacific Northwest this spring for the first time in a while, and the Everett date is a cornerstone of the run. Supporting acts Filthy Traitors and The Wreck’d fill out a bill that promises a full night of local energy before the headliner even takes the stage.

This is an all-ages show with ID required, which matters: Tony V’s doesn’t always go all-ages, and this one is worth bringing a younger sibling or a curious friend who’s never experienced a punk show done right. At $17.85, it’s also the most affordable night of the three — and arguably the most accessible entry point for anyone new to the venue or this corner of the punk world.

Doors at 7 PM, show at 8 PM. Tickets at Eventbrite.

Saturday, April 18 — Mistress of Reality: An All-Female Black Sabbath Tribute

Show: 7 PM | Tickets: $23.18 | 1716 Hewitt Avenue, Everett, WA 98201

There is a woman at the front of this band who goes by Madame Ozzy. That alone should tell you that Mistress of Reality is not playing the hits politely.

Founded in 2002 and widely recognized as the world’s first all-female Black Sabbath tribute act, Mistress of Reality has been touring the Pacific Northwest and beyond for over two decades. This is not a novelty act. This is a band that has spent twenty-plus years perfecting the heaviest catalog in rock history, and they do it with a theatricality that the original band — at their peak — would’ve appreciated.

Iron Man. War Pigs. Paranoid. N.I.B. The full Sabbath canon, played by musicians who genuinely understand what made those songs terrifying in 1970 — and why they still hit the same way now. The Saturday-night crowd at Tony V’s tends to get loud, and this bill should push that in the best possible direction. If you’ve ever wanted to experience the opening riff of “Black Sabbath” hit a room the way it’s supposed to, this is your night in Everett.

Tickets are $23.18 via Eventbrite. Show starts at 7 PM — earlier than the other two nights, so don’t sleep on getting there.

Sunday, April 19 — RKL (Rich Kids on LSD) with Tony Foresta of Municipal Waste

Show: 8 PM | Tickets: $28.52 | 1716 Hewitt Avenue, Everett, WA 98201

RKL — Rich Kids on LSD — doesn’t need a lot of introduction to anyone who came up on hardcore and skate-punk in the 1980s. Formed in 1982 in Montecito, California, they were part of the original nardcore scene, the Santa Barbara/Ventura County hardcore underground that shaped the sound of an entire generation of fast, loud, no-apologies punk. Their music has always sat at the intersection of raw speed and actual craft — they never just played fast; they played with precision inside the chaos.

The current lineup brings together long-standing members Chris Rest, Barry Ward, Lil’ Joe Raposo, and Dave Raun with Tony Foresta of Municipal Waste handling vocal duties. That pairing is worth lingering on: Foresta is one of the best frontmen in modern thrash and crossover, and watching him run RKL’s catalog is something that works on every level. He brings a ferocity that matches the source material without trying to imitate the past.

Sunday nights at Tony V’s are usually reserved for the diehards, and that’s exactly who this show is going to attract. At $28.52 it’s the highest ticket price of the three nights, and it’s the most justified. This is a band with decades of history and a vocalist who makes that history feel alive right now.

Why This Weekend Is Worth Planning Around

Three nights at Tony V’s isn’t unusual. Three nights this distinct — a melodic punk reunion with dual female leads, a theatrical heavy metal tribute led by Madame Ozzy, and a hardcore legend with one of crossover’s best voices — is something rarer. Each show has its own crowd, its own energy, its own reason to show up.

Tony V’s Garage has been doing this for years: putting up bills that don’t require you to be a specific kind of music fan, stacking weekends that reward the people willing to come out on a Tuesday mindset on a Friday or Sunday. Hewitt Avenue has a specific electricity to it when the venue is firing, and this April 17–19 run is one of those weekends where the full stretch adds up to more than any single night.

If you’re working with one night, Saturday’s Mistress of Reality is the one most likely to surprise you. If you have flexibility and you haven’t been to Tony V’s before, Friday’s Tsunami Bomb is the easy first recommendation — all ages, lower price point, three bands, and a headliner that earned that Rolling Stone nod fair and square.

Tony V’s Garage is at 1716 Hewitt Avenue, Everett, WA 98201. Phone: (425) 374-3567. All tickets available through Eventbrite.
