Event information

Von Wildenhaus, hailing from the fog-drenched Pacific Northwest, is an apocalyptic avant-pop lounge act, a bizarro rock & roll band as comfortable working in American folk idioms as covering Klaus Nomi.

Ben von Wildenhaus leads a cast of shadowy conspirators in conjuring this darkly sonorous music, most notably, the spectral presence of singer Billie Bloom, who delivers ecstatic melodies with fearless and riveting devotion that have found admirers in The Quietus and Iggy Pop.

In the fall of 2023, the band will release "The Von Universe," a collection of pop songs, guitar noir, basement folk and spacey explorations to accompany their September tour of the UK.

Greg Smith will open the show. Expect songs about death, the human condition and dogs, with dangerous hints of melody.
