Last Friday, SOFI TUKKER unleashed their third studio album BREAD, a Latin-infused dance-pop affair celebrating the titular versatile food. Given that theme, it made sense that the duo played their album release show at LA’s downtown hub Grand Central Market—a place serving bread in its many diverse forms—and it made even more sense that the crowded room was full of baguette imagery, whether it be in the form of costumes, earrings, or actual loaves of bread.

At this point you probably have some pretty wild ideas as to what exactly went down last weekend, which is precisely why we had the band document it in photos. In short, yes, their free DJ set does look every bit as wild as you’d imagined. Check out the LP here if you haven’t already, and revisit the night in words and photos below.

On the way to GCM!

A common occurrence: not really knowing where to go

Checking out the posters made for the event—so cool

Shoutout to Kunna for always helping me with outfit choices

The Bobs Dance Shop manager, Anthony, with the best necklace we’ve ever seen in our lives

Green room hugs

Everyone say hi Kunna!

Last minute song additions

Sippin’ on some Novo Fogo sparkling tea, dancing with Anabel Englund, would recommend to a friend

Every moment was a vibe

So grateful for this packed house

Sam Blacky, electric on and off the DJ booth

Couldn’t stop laughing and smiling the whole night

The nastier our faces look, the better the drop

Really love these digital vintage vibes going on here—the bread details make us so happy

Apologies for the blurry photo, but this is a baguette earring!

Bread, everywhere!

Thanks to everyone for coming out, was so fun

Caught red-handed 

Go off Anabel

Thank you, Sam, for celebrating with us

This photo is specifically to share my favorite shirt—enjoy

Baguettes are the only appropriate mics from now on

Lucas in his element

You gotta zoom in on those inflatables 

Vibin’

This woman, Robin, went through airport security dressed like this—legend

Fun fact: this is Tuck’s fave merch item

Loved the food vendors dancing with us

One of the most fun nights ever celebrating our new album

Shout out to M.A., our newest Lady Bob dancer—she’s iconic

The faces in this photo—dead 

Hot and sweaty—yes, please

I meeean, be really energetic and dance, am I right?

Go Lucas, go Lucas!

Anabel, Sam—thank you for coming to celebrate with us!
