Event information

BALMORHEA (Austin, TX)
Amazingly beatiful sounds straddling rock and classical from a one-off, really-must-see band. Tender, bucolic instrumentals that waft and linger like the remnants of a summer afternoon. In other words, ideal for the last day of a Bank Holiday weekend!
'each track plays out as a counselling session for the weary, dispensing affecting and emotionally rousing imagery like medication.'– Drowned In Sound
'There are the swells of Stravinsky, the mercurial keyboard majesty of Debussy, the triad-based romanticism of Arvo Pärt, the clangorous sensuality of Keith Jarrett, the electronics-meet-acoustics approach of Max Richter, and the beaming melodic flashes of the Takoma Records cartel (from John Fahey to George Winston, mind you)' – Pitchfork
