Concrete & Grass混凝草音乐节 呈现：

 

纽约独立浪潮 Sunflower Bean 中国巡演

 

 

 

“纽约城最酷的年轻乐队”   —— Rolling Stone

 

“（Sunflower Bean）让我们对独立音乐再次充满期待。”  ——NME

 

 

作为Concrete & Grass 混凝草音乐节的第二场预热演出，我们将为你带来一支酷酷的乐队。

近期在美国大热的Sunflower Bean三人组虽正值20出头的年纪，却已成功地用他们自称的“数字时代的新迷幻摇滚”征服了乐迷对多元曲风的渴求。在万花筒般的Dream Pop和躁动不安的另类摇滚旋律衬托下，Julia Cumming飘渺迷人的音色与Nick Kivlen的复古嗓音相辅相成。乐队除了在音乐圈拥有很高呼声外，女主唱兼贝斯手Cumming亦是时尚界的宠儿——Saint Laurent 圣罗兰的专属模特。如此集新鲜又有趣的音乐、鲜明个性和不俗面容于一身的年轻乐队，绝对值得你一睹现场，当然，前提是你挤得进去~！

Sunflower Bean自2013年起开始活跃在人们的视线，起初他们在大本营布鲁克林一带卖力地演出，赢得乐迷的口口相传。同年发布首支单曲《Bread》，以及2014年在Bamcamp上发行demo《2013》引发了广泛热议和关注。而真正使他们人气飙升的，是领略过他们的音乐之后，伸出橄榄枝的Saint Laurent 前艺术总监Hedi Silmane，不久后，Cumming被他钦点为这个法国殿堂级时装品牌的最新灵感缪斯。

如日中天的Sunflower Bean开始了马不停蹄的世界巡演，期间还为Saint Laurent时装周派对演出、和Wolf Alice、Best Coast、The Vaccines、DIIV同台演出。“他们的演出独具匠心，令人印象深刻，从不会让人觉得沉闷” （引自《滚石》杂志），现场伸长了脖子的观众也在不断增加，人头攒动。而令人不太感意外的是，他们的名字也出现在了2016年Summer Sonic音乐节的阵容名单中~!

今年2月，乐队终于交出了一份不负乐迷期望的作品，即首张专辑《Human Ceremony》。这张只花了7天就录音问世的实验之作，与早期demo充斥着粗粝Lo-fi的和模糊女声有些不同。在经过前Friends乐队成员Matt Molnar的精心制作和打磨之后，呈现出杂烩式的多元曲风、明确爽朗的节奏和甜腻又愤怒的吉他旋律，清澈慵懒的女声浅浅吟唱着对生活的感悟。

8月17、18日，Concrete & Grass 混凝草音乐节邀你亲自来感受Sunflower Bean不可思议的现场魅力！

 Concrete & Grass Presents:

Sunflower Bean

“New York City’s coolest young band” – Rolling Stone

 

“They’re making indie exciting again, basically.” – NME

 

Don’t be misled by the name. This band rocks hard.

 

Sunflower Bean write perfect pop-psychedelic songs that are meant to be experienced live. Beguiling, moody melodies that are a little bit dark and quite a bit sexy.

Their well of influences runs deep and bountiful: you’ll hear bits of The Velvet Underground, Neu! and Kraftwerk, the blues rock of Fleetwood Mac and the woozy textures of bands like Tame Impala.  As bassist Julia Cumming puts it: “You're allowed to obsess over Black Sabbath as well as The Cure. It'd be boring if everything was just one way or the other."

 

There’s never a dull moment with this lot. Their live shows are “ingenious, impressive” affairs [Rolling Stone] that “leave everyone in attendance reeling” [The Line of Best Fit].

 

They’re one of the world’s most exciting young guitar bands, and we’re hugely stoked to have them play our second Concrete & Grass warm-up show.

Wednesday, August 17 in Shanghai (Yuyintang). Thursday, August 18 in Beijing (Modernsky Lab). Buzzy, fuzzy and impossibly alluring. These are going to be good.

Sunflower Bean find magic within friction. Through constant gigging around New York, Sunflower Bean sprouted into a sonic enigma, boasting a fiery musical call-and-response that serves as a centerpiece, giving the music what Jacob refers to as a “lyrical aspect” between the guitars, drums, and bass.

They transferred this multi-headed energy into their 2015 Independent EP, Show Me Your Seven Secrets. At the same time, this distinct alchemy enchanted ever-growing audiences live. By the time, they entered the studio for their debut album, Sunflower Bean had a lively aural cauldron from which to draw.

The trio’s first full-length, Human Ceremony, emerges at the intersection of dreamy modern psychedelica and urgent fuzzed-out bliss. That push-and-pull colours the aural tapestry of these three musicians—Jacob Faber [drums], Julia Cumming [vocals/bass], and Nick Kivlen [vocals/guitars].

Whereas the EP was recorded after Sunflower Bean played 100 shows in one year, Human Ceremony showed the band’s studio side with richer soundscapes, overdubs, and music that had yet to be debuted live.

There’s nowhere to go but up for these three.

Wednesday, August 17 in Shanghai (with support from psych-pop trio Dream Can) and Thursday, August 18 in Beijing (with support from catchy indie-punksters The Diagon Alley).
