Lady Dan, Brides, Futon Blonde

The Ballroom, Sunday 13

Still buzzing from Hot Summer Nights, Lady Dan's dejected Western soundscapes make the perfect soundtrack for sweltering dog days. Offstage, her eclectic discography holds a multitude of genre dabblings: from the emotional yee haw indie rock of 2021 album I Am the Prophet to a dark club cover of Bill Withers' "Just the Two of Us." The post-hardcore of Brides, nodding indie grooves of Futon Blonde, and plucky garage pop of Squamps further encapsulate the moody themes of the night.
