BAD MOVES
Washington, DC
https://badmoves.bandcamp.com
When people sing together, is it necessarily cathartic? Is catharsis necessarily rejuvenating? And what if the aftermath of catharsis turns out to be the same old frustration? With their third LP, Washington, D.C.’s Bad Moves have expanded their founding artistic identity — a candy-coated guitar-pop shell surrounding a bitter lyrical core — by refracting their ideas through a new set of musical forms that weaponize repetition. On the new Wearing Out the Refrain, Bad Moves propose that the flip side of the delirious harmony of the basement show singalong is the volatile, accusatory antiphony of a community divided by strain, shouting the same desperate hook back and forth at one another.

THEO GRIZOL (OF NANA GRIZOL)
New Orleans, LA

https://nanagrizol.bandcamp.com

An indie pop band from Athens, Georgia with a unique personality, Nana Grizol marry the cheerfully lackadaisical sound of slacker-informed bands like Pavement with the bent yet engaging psychedelic pop of the Elephant 6 collective, all filtered through the lyrical worldview of vocalist and songwriter Theo Hilton. Incorporating a queer sensibility into his tales of life in the American South, Hilton's songs are deeply personal, alternately playful and introspective in their depiction of joy and outrage, and the use of a large, horn-enhanced ensemble adds to the drama and tonal color of his music.
