Best Noodles In Town is an alternative emo band from Indianapolis. Raised on early 2000s emo, pop punk, post-hardcore, and alternative rock, they bring nostalgic roots into a fresh, modern context. Their sound pairs pretty, melodic guitar work with explosive breakdowns, catchy choruses, and hard-hitting, honest lyrics. It’s emotional music that old and new fans of the scene can get behind.

Live, BNIT deliver a polished, high-energy set built on years of playing together and apart. Their stage presence is confident and dialed-in, combining raw emotion with the kind of tight execution that only comes from real experience.

FFO - Hot Mulligan, The Story So Far, Minus The Bear, Transit, Four Year Strong, Movements, Balance and Composure
