Medium Build with The Scratch
Goldenvoice Presents Medium Build with The Scratch on Saturday, October 31, 2026, for an all-ages concert that brings heartfelt songwriting, contemporary Americana, and an open-hearted sense of community to the stage. Doors open at 7:00 PM, with the show beginning at 8:00 PM.
Medium Build, the musical project of queer singer-songwriter Nick Carpenter, has developed a devoted following through songs that balance vulnerability, warmth, and richly textured storytelling. Originally from Alaska, Carpenter built a passionate local audience in Anchorage before relocating to Nashville and expanding his career nationally. His music draws from country, Americana, pop, and alternative influences, creating a sound that feels both intimate and contemporary.
Songs such as “Crying Over U” highlight Medium Build’s willingness to explore emotional honesty, while “Never Learned to Dance” blends acoustic guitar, steel guitar, and a modern sense of yearning. That combination gives his performances a personal quality, with themes of love, identity, family, connection, and the uncertainty of modern life woven into the music.
The evening also features The Scratch, adding another dimension to the live lineup. Together, the artists offer an engaging night for listeners who appreciate distinctive voices, strong songwriting, and performances that prioritize connection over spectacle.
The October 31 concert is all ages, making it suitable for a broad audience. Guests who need accessible accommodations should contact the venue if accessible tickets are unavailable. Ticket prices may change based on demand, and orders that violate the published ticket limit may be canceled without notice.
The event also carries a community and environmental component. Medium Build is partnering with PLUS1, with $1 from every ticket sold benefiting REVERB, an organization working toward a more sustainable music industry while encouraging fans to take action on environmental and social issues.
With its combination of emotionally direct songwriting, genre-blending influences, and a meaningful community focus, Medium Build with The Scratch offers a thoughtful way to spend Halloween night. Whether you’re already familiar with Medium Build’s music or discovering Nick Carpenter’s work for the first time, the October 31 performance promises an intimate and expressive live-music experience.
