Just a week after revealing the inaugural lineup for its 4,000-capacity Riverside venue, United Heritage Hall, events company AEG Presents is giving a first look at programming at the smaller neighboring venue, Moonline. The 1,500-capacity venue is taking over the current home of Emo's, which is moving back downtown, where it started more than 30 years ago.

A press release from AEG says the venue will open in 2027 "after a series of upgrades and renovations." The team is working on the sound system, green rooms, backstage areas, and guest amenities.

Moonline will host shows within a variety of genres spanning from mainstream (pop, rock, and hip-hop) to niche (emo, hardcore, and more). Using descriptions from the press release, here are are the first shows slated for the venue:

February 13: Talking Heads tribute HeartByrne

February 17: Los Angeles alternative rock band Bad Suns

February 26: pop singer-songwriter Chelsea Cutler

March 4: British progressive metal band Haken

March 6: Chicago indie rock band Beach Bunny

March 12: metalcore band Currents

March 24: New Jersey emo and punk veterans Saves the Day

March 31: New York hardcore legends Gorilla Biscuits with Terror
