Starbenders – Album Release Show w/ Next Year’s End and Forrest Isn’t Dead at The Masquerade

Thursday, February 13th at 7:00pm

Event Link

Hailing from the ATL, Starbenders are the half way home for misunderstood misfits, fringers and glam punks. Front-woman, Kimi Shelter and her gang have concocted a perfect alchemic blend of androgynous rock and roll power with “stuck in your brain” pop melodies. Imagine David Bowie playing 7 minutes in heaven with Debbie Harry.

Event Link

Bassy‘s current outlook on life offers the ideal springboard for the theme of his sophomore record: exploring depression and anxiety in modern culture while still delivering a mix of big pop songs and hip-hop-leaning gems about love and sex. “We live in a world where everyone is more connected, but feels more lonely than ever, and that’s just the interesting thing to explore.”
