Patio formed when non-musician Loren DiBlasi met actual musician Lindsey-Paige McCloy, and a simple joke about outdoor day drinking turned into a real-life band. The duo was soon joined by Alice Suh, a college friend of McCloy’s who had recently started drum lessons. Instantly, the trio’s informal jams became sparse, melodic songs that grew organically from elegant rhythms, ethereal singing, and punk-inspired chants. In 2016, Birdtapes released their Luxury - EP, 5 tracks of boredom, frustration, and mid-20s malaise. Inspired by classic British post-punk, the songwriting of Cate le Bon, and the close-knit Brooklyn DIY community from which the band first sprouted, Patio now release their long-awaited debut full-length Essentials, a fundamental collection of new music for 2019. Building upon the delicacy of the band’s prior work, Essentials presents fuller sounds, heightened emotions, and grander thematic complexity. Its 10 tracks are dark and introspective, yet hopeful, and often humorous—from rambling spoken word meditations to sparkling melodies and soaring riffs. Melodramatic and grotesque expressions abound, as do soft, subtle moments of quiet self-examination.BRNDAWashington, DChttps://brendadc.bandcamp.com/BRNDA, a four-piece from DC, has been compared to Adam and the Ants, Parquet Courts and Pixies. Perhaps this panoply of cultural post-its is unavoidable at a time when all music is listenable, always pilferable. BRNDA, like any honest band, admits to the plundering, but they do have a few rules: No covers, No love songs. Also, simple is always better. So if they have scoured the late 70s, 80s and early 2010s for musical detritus, they haven’t made off with just anything salvageable. No, only the least ostentatious, most off-kilter will do. And so, if you find yourself unable to put your finger on just what you’re hearing, it is because BRNDA is not just some rehashed comfort listening. Couple the music with the world-wary, at-times indecipherable lyrical meaning of the vocalists (they all sing), and you might begin to doubt yourself…but you might also enjoy it. This is exactly how BRNDA wants you to feel.POPPY PATICAWashington, DChttp://poppypatica.bandcamp.comPoppy Patica is an odd rock band from the District of Columbia. It began as the solo project of Peter Hartmann in Oberlin, OH in 2014 and since then has seen many different incarnations, with different musicians in different locations. Uniting each of these disparate formations has been the consistent pursuit of songs and performances that aim to surprise the listener, while maintaining a penchant for pop. For the last year this poppyseed pastry-themed project has been joined by Nikhil Rao (Bottled Up) on drums and Chloe Menderson (Little Butcher) on keys.
