Zambri
New York City duo, Zambri (aka Jessica and Cristi Jo), create a magnetic sound which many have coined, "apocalyptic pop". The Fader says "They've reached this Kate Bush level of top-of-the-mountain, sing-into-the-sun gothic atmosphere…", and The Guardian sums it up with, "They invoke a sense of doom as well as its mirror image, mood… The raw material is ravishing…sublimely weird rock n' roll."
The Suzan - (Set time: 7:30 PM)
