93FEETOFSMOKE comes back to The Secret Group in December

The Richmond, Virginia, vocalist and producer returns to the room he last played in March 2022, on Friday, Dec. 4, with Fats'e and polearm.

93FEETOFSMOKE last played Houston on March 23, 2022, at The Secret Group. Next month he's back in the same room, on a Friday night, with two openers and a ticket price that stays under $20.

93FEETOFSMOKE plays The Secret Group on Friday, Dec. 4, at 7 p.m., with Fats'e and polearm. Tickets are $15 to $20 through See Tickets. The show was announced Oct. 20. Our listings put the room at 350 capacity.

If the name is new to you, Last.fm's artist wiki describes him as a vocalist and producer from Richmond, Virginia, whose style can be called emo trap. Our data files him under hip-hop and rap. Both labels are useful, and neither is the whole story. He produces his own work as well as singing it.

His catalog goes back several years. Last.fm lists three EPs, plastic soul in 2017 and idfk, come home pt. 1 and 6SPEED in 2018, plus the 2018 mixtape BUMMER. In April 2023, Melodic Magazine reviewed what it called his latest album, ALTAR74. That album came out a year after his last Houston date, so the songs from it have not had a Secret Group crowd yet.

That's the hook for this show. When he last played the room in 2022, ALTAR74 didn't exist. In December, it will be part of a catalog that runs from the 2017 EPs to a full album. That's a different show from the last one, even if it's in the same 350-capacity room.

The bill is also worth noting. Fats'e and polearm are both on it, so a $15 to $20 ticket gets three acts on a Friday night. With a 7 p.m. start, the openers will go on early. Plan to get there at the top of the night if you want to see the whole bill.

Coming back to the same room after more than four years says something too. The Secret Group is where he played Houston last time, and it's where he's chosen to play it again. For fans who were there in 2022, that's a familiar setting for new material.

A Friday in early December is a good night for a show like this: cheap, early and close to the stage. If ALTAR74 has been in your rotation since 2023, this is the first chance to hear it in Houston.
