***LTD EARLYBIRD TIX REMAIN***
Emerging from the dynamic music scene of North Carolina in the 1980s, The Veldt crafted a sound that seamlessly melds shoegaze and progressive soul, carving out a distinct niche within the first wave of shoegaze bands worldwide. Their music is a mesmerizing blend of ethereal atmospheres, sultry melodies, and irresistible rhythms, establishing them as a standout presence in the genre.
Following their signing to Capitol Records in 1989, The Veldt embarked on a transformative musical journey. Collaborating with dream-gaze luminary Robin Guthrie of the Cocteau Twins, they began crafting their debut album, 'Illuminated 1989'. Although initially shelved by the label, their subsequent releases, including the acclaimed 'Marigolds' in 1992 and the seminal 'Afrodisiac' in 1994, garnered widespread praise and cemented their place in the shoegaze canon. With “Afrodisiac” ultimately found its way onto Pitchfork’s list of the “Top 50 Shoegaze Albums Ever Released”.
TREMOURS formed in Los Angeles in 2021 by the duo of Lauren Andino and Glenn Fryatt. Late night jam sessions in the midst of lockdown uncertainty slowly transformed into TREMOURS creative partnership, driven by the tension between Andino’s hazy, drifting guitars and Fryatt’s urgent, pulsating drums.
South Carolina-born Andino has played with LSD And The Search For God and most recently L.A. Witch as a touring guitarist. Fryatt hails from Portsmouth, England, and has toured as a drummer for artists such as Cherubs, The Montrose Avenue and Ten Benson.
TREMOURS sees them each newly harnessing and exploring their own creative impulses, inspired by everything from shoegaze to jazz to electronica to literature to looking out at the sea.
