PopGun Presents was founded in 2008 by Rami Haykal and Jake Rosenthal, in a cacophonous live/work space in Bushwick, Brooklyn, with the stubborn idea of celebrating and advocating for the artists and music we care about. Back then, we were unemployed and we threw parties. There were long soggy night-mornings, and there was life-giving music, so we followed the light, Amen. Since 2008, PopGun Presents has grown from a hapless duo into a full-scale music events production and promotion collective, a passionate team with discerning taste and a very large reach. We owned and operated the beloved Williamsburg music venue Glasslands, and then we went on to build and manage Elsewhere in Bushwick – a large multi-room, multi-genre home for music and the arts. Every month we have our hands in a large collection of highly curated shows and parties throughout the city, in a humble attempt to spotlight the world-class artists that we feel deserve your respect and attention. Some events companies present music they don't believe in — you won't find that here.
