Concert / Dream pop & Trip hop Drab City

Désolé, ce texte n’existe pas en français.

Due to the current Covid-related restrictions, Drab City’s performance has to be cancelled. Ticketholders will be personally contacted regarding a refund.

A heady air of dislocation envelops Drab City’s debut album, where songs of innocence and experience merge with dub, hip-hop, dream-pop and jazzy soundtrack vibes to intoxicating effect. 

Lyrically, these songs often project punkish angst and resentment. Yet the casual listener might not notice the violence as the music itself is far from abrasive. Dreamy and ethereal, a foundation of flute, vibraphone, and jazzy guitar chord melody can switch to drum machines or funk-inflected girl-group pop at a moment’s notice. At once catchy and unfamiliar, the melodic, welcoming soundscapes are a Trojan horse for the band’s antisocial outlook.
