Nala Sinephro plays harp as if she’s drifting through a galaxy far away. Complete with keyboard, drums, and saxophone, the dynamics created a rich textured atmosphere with some interesting unpredictable tones and progressions created by a modular synth as well.
Joanna Sternberg is one of the few musicians who comes close to the pure genuineness of Daniel Johnston. Be nice to this human, world!
Model/Actriz is a four piece but as soon as Cole Haden emerges on stage, it’s a little like there’s only him despite how tight the rest of the band is. Haden definitely understands how to seduce an audience. The band is a four piece instrumentally with guitar, bass, and drums (Haden is free to belt out visceral lyrics and dance around as well as get personal with the audience.) The sound itself is rhythmic and jarring with a fast paced energy and lyrics delivered with a slight vibrato. The guitar playing is more like a percussive instrument and the dark wave elements are prominent. Think Parenthetical Girls on speed and you’ll be on the right track!
Seeing Grandmaster Flash dj is like being at the largest party in your life. With everyone in a great mood, Flash brought out samples from all genres and all over the globe in a spirit of bringing everyone together to celebrate music!
Crumb is what happens when you make pop music shimmer!
Tim Harrington is a possessed human sent to planet Earth to cure us of our boredom. Sure, the music of Les Savy Fav is simultaneously edgy and catchy but it’s the unpredictably of Harrington jumping into the audience, singing through balloons, licking microphones , using a tarp as a cape and never missing a beat that makes this work as not just typical indie rock. They call themselves “your new favorite old art rock band” but part of that art is definitely performance art. Too bad he didn’t ride the audience inside a garbage can this time but still we were just happy to be there!
