TOKiMONSTA takes a late Friday at The Church on Nov. 13

The producer and Young Art Records founder plays Denver's converted 19th-century church at 10 p.m., with a new 2026 single in hand.

Stained glass, a Gothic ceiling and a 10 p.m. start: there are few rooms in the country where an electronic set looks quite like it does at The Church.

TOKiMONSTA plays The Church on Friday, Nov. 13, at 10 p.m. Tickets are on sale through TicketWeb. The Church holds 1,500, and on a Friday in November this is a proper late night out.

TOKiMONSTA comes in with fresh music. In June she announced "Joy without Sound," billed as her first release of 2026, following the album *Eternal Reverie*, which came out in 2025 on Young Art Records, the label she runs. That record had a bumpy road: it was first announced for a 2024 release, then postponed along with its tour after a family emergency, before arriving the following spring. This year she's been back on the road more steadily, including an Australian run that took in Melbourne in May.

Her fall dates are a short, scattered run rather than a full tour. She played Portland at the end of October and is in Austin tomorrow night, then Denver next Friday, with a Los Angeles date on New Year's Day. That makes the Denver show one of only a handful of chances to see her this season, and the only one in the Mountain West.

Her sets cross a lot of ground. The genres she gets filed under run from electronic to indie, and her catalog includes collaborations with rappers like EarthGang alongside instrumental, club-leaning tracks, so a TOKiMONSTA set tends to move between moods rather than sitting at one tempo all night.

The room is half the reason to go. The Church sits at 1160 Lincoln Street, in a Gothic Revival building designed by Denver architect William Lang, who also designed the nearby Molly Brown House. It was built as St. Mark's Parish Church and served its congregation for 86 years; its original tower collapsed in the 1950s. Regas Christou bought the building from the Episcopal diocese in 1994, and it has been a nightclub since 1996. It's listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a designated Denver landmark, and the interior still has its stained glass and high-beamed ceilings. Run today by CoClubs, it mostly books house, techno and EDM DJs, which makes a producer like TOKiMONSTA a natural fit.

What to know before you go: a 10 p.m. start at a nightclub usually means openers first and the headliner later, so check the TicketWeb listing for set times and age requirements, and bring ID. Dress for a dance floor, not for the cold outside, and plan your ride home ahead of time; a late Friday downtown is not the night to improvise.

A converted church, a producer who doesn't stay in one lane, and a Friday night with nowhere to be in the morning. Denver doesn't need much more convincing than that.
