Mango Cat Presents One Time Weekend wsg Hippie Crippler Live at Ophelia's

Introducing One Time Weekend – the band redefining progressive rock. With a growing catalog of studio albums and live releases, OTW has quickly attracted a loyal following of fans who can't quite put their finger on what makes the band so unique – but love it all the same. As one fan puts it: “It’s hard to define this band. It’s a little bit of everything. Whatever it is, we like it.”

Known for their electrifying live shows, One Time Weekend delivers an unforgettable high-energy experience at every performance. Twin lead guitarists Adam Eytan and Zac Mulcahy blend speed, precision, and soul in their masterful interplay. Bassist and lead vocalist Ian D’Arcangelo anchors the band with both a powerful vocal range and a groove-heavy bass foundation. Drummer Ben Sullivan drives the rhythm with rock-solid energy, while percussionist and experimental noise-maker Alex Giosa adds layers of texture and spontaneity to each song.

Every One Time Weekend show is an adventure—no two performances are the same, and no two songs sound alike. It’s rock, it’s experimental, it’s everything in between, and it's always a ride worth taking.

Hippie Crippler hails from Asbury Park, NJ. While this is their local debut, the members of the band are no strangers to the area, as guitarist Max and bassist Jon are both members of Fungkshui, a band that has played Albany several times. Their drummer Kyle used to be Fungkshui's drummer.

While Hippie Crippler carries a grim name, their onstage presence will only make you smile.
