Safer + Light Beams + Lohesh

10pm - $12 - All Ages

SAFER

Brooklyn, NY

https://saferisaband.bandcamp.com/

Safer is the new creative vehicle for Mattie Safer, vocalist and bassist of Poolside and The Rapture. The music returns to the sound he's best known for – his energetic, driving bass lines and distinctive vocal were a bedrock of The Rapture's first two albums – while incorporating a powerful, soulful vocal delivery and a well honed pop sensibility that reflects his growth over the past decade.

LIGHT BEAMS

Washington, DC

Light Beams began in 2015 when longtime Dischord artist Justin Moyer (El Guapo, Supersystem, Edie Sedgwick, Puff Pieces) -- influenced by 80s-era freestyle music and Sheila E. -- started playing sampler and timbales with Sam Lavine, the longtime drummer of D.C. hip-hop mainstays the Cornel West Theory. With the addition of bassist Arthur Noll, formerly of Kid Congo Powers and Alarms & Controls, the resulting polyrhythmic melange, sometimes called "block rock," reinvents late-20th century dance-pop using the tools of the 21st. Known for their blistering live performances and relentlessly positive attitudes, the band hopes to inspire audiences to feel good about themselves in an era when the menacing shadows of night seem more threatening than ever before.

LOHESH

Washington, DC

A brand new band featuring members of Bacchae and Psychic Subcreatures.
