Døre kl: 20

Blvck Hippie:
Memphis, TN’s Blvck Hippie will release their new album Basketball Camp on June 14th. “I wanted to write a record that I needed to hear in high school.” shares the band’s Josh Shaw (they/them). With Basketball Camp, Blvck Hippie faces down overwhelming anxieties and insecurities through endearingly bleary eyed indie rock, dreamy off kilter pop, free jazz interludes, and cathartic freak outs. Basketball Camp is the follow up to the band’s promising debut LP If You Feel Alone at Parties, which FLOOD Magazine praised as “not only a must-listen, but a must-repeat-listen, many times in a row; a lo-fi, rhythm-and-blues-and-indie, heartbreaking mini-epic about growing up and out and over while blossoming weirdly anew and expressing genuine poetic thought every time you hear it.”

Shaw approached their newest record with a freedom and weirdness that manifests itself in a confident genre agnostic journey that seamlessly transitions between twinkly midwest emo guitars, early aughts Lower East Side indie rock, woozy chillwave, spoken word and jazz. With songs structured more like acts in a play than your typical verse / chorus / verse, at every turn the listener comes across something delightfully unexpected. And in a nod to the rich musical history of the band’s hometown, and the underappreciated present day artistic scene therein, a
choir of Memphis artists contribute their voices to various songs, acting as a storytelling device tying the record’s various threads together. That Memphis chorus fittingly closes out the album in joyful reverie as Shaw expounds upon an apprehensive but hopeful message to anyone listening. “I definitely haven’t made it over the mountain, but I’ve gotten higher than I’ve ever been so far.”

+ Support: Full Cry
Full Cry blends magic, melancholy, and a touch of irony in their indie-pop songs, exploring both the hardships and wonders of being alive.

With influences from jazz, soul, and the British psych-rock scene, Full Cry has developed a unique sound where harmonic vocals, lo-fi guitar, and jazzy trumpet come together naturally.

Over the past year, they’ve performed at venues like Loppen, Musikcaféen, UHØRT Festival, and Råhuset, while also receiving airplay on P6 Beat. Following the release of their debut EP, Crying, But Sexy, they are now looking ahead to an exciting 2025, with their first full-length album, Baby Is The Best, set for release.

Drawing inspiration from artists like The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Big Thief, and Elliott Smith, Full Cry has spent the past year performing, recording, and releasing music in collaboration with their UK-based producer Tom Richards. Their latest releases include the two standalone Danish-language singles, Vilde Blå and Tørstigste Fjols, as well as ‘99 Corolla — the first single from their upcoming album, already highlighted by Bands of Tomorrow.

With new music on the horizon and more live shows to look forward to, 2025 marks an exciting year for the Full Cry.
