It's day-night 5 (out of 6!) of the New Colossus Festival, and we're heading over to the Ki Smith Gallery on Forsyth Street to check out EVG Friday-at-5 alum Drook kick off another evening of live music.
The trio is from Richmond, Va., and their sound is built on propulsive rhythms and vibrant synth flourishes...
And outside after the show...
We stayed for a local band we know and like — the 90s-ish dream pop of Whisper Doll...
We then headed to the evening portion of the Shoegaze party at Arlene's Grocery... first up, the NYC debut of Glasgow's Dallas Love Field (another EVG Friday-at-5 alum FWIW)...
Up next, Brooklyn's Punchlove...
Returning to the New Colossus Festival were the Hong Kong-based Lucid Express...
And a way back view of the full room...
Last stop: Baker Falls on Allen Street for the Spanish Wave Showcase featuring Grima from Cologne, Germany ... (And we were momentarily confused thinking we were going to see THIS Grima.)
... and the UK-based trio I See Orange ... making their US debut...
Outside Baker Falls, we ran into EVG faves Genre is Death... they're on a bill this Friday at TV Eye in Ridgewood with Lydia Lunch and the Art Gray Noizz Quintet, and the Skull Practitioners...
