Of the latter, Lyrical Lemonade attested, “HOMESICK illustrates the galvanizing energy of a young group with the prowess and skill, both technical and intuitively, of a bunch of veterans, all without skipping a beat.” In 2021, they reteamed with Romil and BROCKHAMPTON’s Kevin Abstract, the production duo Video Store, to cultivate their next evolution in the studio. Additionally, they welcomed legendary producer Brendan O’Brien [Pearl Jam, Red Hot Chili Peppers] into the fold to truly shock their vision to life.

Mezerg w/ Fred Fancy

Larimer Lounge Presents Mezerg with Fred Fancy on Wednesday, Feb 23rd –Amazing multi-talented instrumentalist Mezerg is a pioneer of modern music technology and one of the most creative musicians you’re likely to come across.

Mezerg merges the electronic with the acoustic to create an impressive and unique live performance that you can’t take your eyes off. Somewhere between house music and an acoustic performance, this nightlife one-man band pays homage to both the jazz bars and the nightclubs of this world with a whirlwind of energy and irresistible sounds.

Penelope Scott w/ Eliza Mclamb

Larimer Lounge Presents Penelope Scott with Eliza Mclamb on Wednesday, March 23rd — 16+, under 16 admitted with ticketed guardianListening to Penelope Scott’s music is like sitting aboard a deranged theme park ride, twisting and turning through caves of Gen Z malaise and satire. This college-student-turned-TikTok-sensation writes songs that contain the absurd humor of meme culture, an acute awareness that virtually every institution is broken, and the frankness of someone earnestly trying to wrestle with their demons. They’re cathartic, thought-provoking, and laugh-out-loud funny, and the artist behind them is far more interested in capturing specific feelings than abiding by the confines of genre.Scott began taking piano lessons when she was eight years old, which she stuck with for about a decade, but her desire for creative freedom soon took hold. “I started to go off script, and I wouldn’t learn the material I was supposed to learn,” Scott says. “I would mess around and play other songs that I’d heard on the radio. It got to a point where my teacher was like, ‘That’s cool,but if you’re going to do that, then you don’t really need to be taking classical piano lessons.’” Scott later took an interest in audio software at her prep school, and she started releasing self-produced music on Bandcamp. In college, she began uploading clips of her songs on TikTok, and soon built a fanbase after the viral success of tracks like “Sweet Hibiscus Tea,” “Cigarette Ahegao,” and “Rat,” which each boast tens of millions of Spotify streams.In 2020, Scott shared a compilation of early material titled The Junkyard 2, which was filled with piano and acoustic songs that fuse the charm and melodies of pop-punk with the off-kilter expressiveness and long-winded wit of Fiona Apple. Later that year, Scott released Public Void, a hyperpop odyssey with video game-like synths—a drastic departure from The Junkyard 2.Here, Scott’s production know-how and interest in disparate sounds are on full display, and her tongue-in-cheek lyrics are even more pointed.Whether she’s channeling emo, pop or techno, Scott really just makes music the way she wants to hear it—whether that’s making percussion sound bolder, speeding up the tempo or maximizing the best part of the song. And as for songwriting, her dark humor and sharp social critiques are just as much a passionate display of her feelings as her pleas to be loved and understood. Her quips may be ~extremely online~, but the way she condenses complex emotions into playful, meaningful dialogues is universal.All patrons must show proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 or proof of negative test results within 72 hours of show date. Regardless of vaccination status, all patrons are strongly encouraged to wear masks at all times.

Indie 102.3 Presents SASAMI w/ Jigsaw Youth

Indie 102.3 Presents SASAMI with Jigsaw Youth on Tuesday, April 5th –All patrons must show proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 or proof of negative test results within 72 hours of show date. Regardless of vaccination status, all patrons are strongly encouraged to wear masks at all times. SASAMI (Sasami Ashworth) will release her second studio album, Squeeze, on February 25, 2022 on Domino Records. Squeeze hammers home a sentiment of “anti-toxic positivity” and showcases her vicious honesty and brutally uncompromising vision, partially inspired by the Japanese yōkai folk spirit called Nure-onna (translation: wet woman), a vampiric deity that has the head of a woman and the body of a snake. Based in Los Angeles, SASAMI is a descendent of the Zainichi people on her mother’s side, a diaspora of ethnic Koreans who lived in Japan during Japan’s occupation of Korea from 1910 to 1945. Though some Zainichi moved voluntarily and others were forcibly kidnapped, these people and their progeny continue to experience systemic discrimination and oppression in Japan to this day. While conducting a deep dive into her family’s mixed Korean and Japanese history and culture, SASAMI stumbled upon stories of Nure-onna and was immediately drawn to the water creature’s multiplicitous nature. According to legend, the deity is feminine and noble, yet powerful and vicious enough to brutally destroy victims with her blood sucking tongue. The fluidity of the Nure-onna can be felt in how Squeeze naturally flows through musical influences—from System of a Down to Sheryl Crow and Fleetwood Mac, to even Bach and Mahler. A classically-trained composer, SASAMI constructed the LP in the form of an opera or orchestral work that has different “movements” that take the listener on an emotional journey. Compared to the introspective indie rock of SASAMI’s 2019 self-titled debut album, Squeeze is a full-throttled expansion. The dark, fantastical elements of the Nure-onna legend feeds into SASAMI’s use of heavy rock elements throughout Squeeze. She hopes that listeners will identify with this new sinister, intense sound and use it as a soundtrack for processing their “anger, frustration, desperation, and more violent, aggressive emotions.” Her ultimate desire is for marginalized folks, including femmes, BIPOC, and queer people, to listen to Squeeze and find catharsis from the oppression and violence that they experience. In reclamatory fashion, SASAMI assumes the form of Nure-onna on the record’s Japanese horror film-inspired cover art, designed by Andrew Thomas Huang (Björk, FKA twigs) and Rin Kim. She chose to pair this Japanese folklore-referencing image with Squeeze written in Korean calligraphy by Myung-Ja Ashworth, SASAMI’s mom, as another act of Zainichi empowerment. On the back, the title is written in Japanese script. All patrons must show proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 or proof of negative test results within 72 hours of show date. Regardless of vaccination status, all patrons are strongly encouraged to wear masks at all times.
