About the Event

Doors open at 8PM; performance begins at 9PM. Entry requires age 21 or older. Some musical acts discover their sound and hold it steady, while others deliberately reshape their identity to keep progressing forward. Sextile knows the excitement of shifting directions firsthand. This Los Angeles pairMelissa Scaduto and Brady Keehnplay with a hunger for life and affection for everything from no wave to hardstyle, having blended elements of these styles on their sharp 2023 debut Push for Sacred Bones. Their latest record, yes please., combines chaotic electro energy with raw personal stories and enough powerful bass to damage one or two speakers. yes please. is an album full of contrasts: a vulnerable work that exposes its heart as much as it celebrates excess, showing how far you can push your sound when you drop your inhibitions. Together they show unwavering confidence, making a bold entrance on the fast intro with a rave siren cut from a 2000s New York house party. By the same token, the wild spirit of electroclash haunts the yes please. structure, flashing its badge on cowbell-laced thunderbolts in Freak Eyes and Rearrange, and turning into a gritty dancefloor explosion with Women Respond to Bass. Full of endorphins, Push-upswhich includes vocals from Jehnny Bethis pure muscular music, strengthened by hoover bass and fleshed out by synths that strike as hard as hail on a glass roof. Scaduto, who grew up in New York, and the Virginia-raised Keehn first met in NYC before moving to Los Angeles and forming Sextile. In 2015 they were joined by guitarist and synth player Eddie Wuebben, embracing occult-inspired post-punk for their debut album A Thousand Hands (2015), boosting synths on the 2017 follow-up Albeit Living, and leaning into this further for the 2018 electronically minded EP 3. Sextile went on break after a difficult period marked by the tragic death of Wuebben in October 2019. They later returned with former bassist Cameron Michel on guitar and synths and released the Modern Weekend / Contortion single in 2022.SNOOPERS nooper was thinking about pressure. Blair Tramel and Connor Cummins, co-masterminds of Snooper, became fascinated by hydraulic press YouTube videos, watching object after object spin and contort before being flattened. Their heads also spun from everything that had happened during Snoopers early years. Tramel could relate to the videos, but for the poignancy of a difficult transformation, not total defeat. There is a sweet spot she says. For a moment push and pull create this beautiful dance. Over the past few years Snooper has rocketed from Nashville DIY scene stalwarts to widespread admiration in the international underground music scene. The project evolved far beyond anything Tramel and Cummins originally imagined, and faster than they could track resulting in disorientation as much as exhilaration. Tramel and Cummins channeled all that energy into writing new material. Their new album Worldwide extends directly from the festering punk the band first made their name on but documents Snooper becoming bolder catchier and more confident.
