DOWNTOWN BOYS
Downtown Boys have pushed relentlessly forward as an artistic and political project since their founding. Singer Victoria Marie and guitarist/singer Joey La Neve DeFrancesco first met at union meetings while working together at a hotel in Providence, RI, writing many of the band’s early songs about their organizing efforts and exploitative workplace conditions. The quintet is completed by saxophonist-synthesist Joe DeGeorge, bassist Mary Jane Regalado, and drummer Joey Doubek. Through years of creating and touring, Downtown Boys continued to grow as artists, musicians, and organizers. Now, Downtown Boys have arrived with Public Luxury on Sub Pop Records, an enthralling new record that keeps politics front and center while summoning the band’s most urgent and powerful sound to date.
POP MUSIC FEVER DREAM
Pop Music Fever Dream is a post-punk/no wave band from New York City. Their sound is wildly invigorating and deeply sobering, harkening back to the 1970s NYC no wave movement and American post-punk stylings of the 1980s. Their live show is equally as chaotic.
