Interview: BRAHMS
Hailing from Brooklyn, New York, BRAHMS has had a dynamic head start on their electronic music career. They played their very first show for 3,000 people on a supporting spot for electropop sweethearts Passion Pit and haven’t looked back since. Now the trio are set to embark on a North American tour in support of Asobi Seksu – and they will be bringing their danceable jams right here to Montreal at Casa del Popolo this Saturday, February 26th.
We spoke with singer Cale Parks this week on dealing with instant success, his penchant for electronic rhythms, and BRAHMS’ upcoming debut 7″ release and full-length in the works.
This Week in Montreal
Last week was uncomfortably hot to say the least. Whether you love it or not, high temperatures are expected to continue this week. So if you’re just going to be sweating at home, outside, or at work, why not come soak up the sweat at one of many shows happening this week in Montreal? Electro poppers Passion Pit are in town and kicking off this busy show week. Not tired from dancing away at Passion Pit? Well we suggest keeping some energy on reserve for the Delorean show this Tuesday night. If pop girl bands are your thing, then you very well might become enamored with the vintage vibes of the wide-eyed Au Revoir Simone. It’s been awhile since we’ve heard any peeps about Montreal’s The Stills. If you’re curious what they’re been up to, check out their intimate show at Casa Del Popolo. Keep on reading for highlights of more shows this week in Montreal, including Why?, Islands and Suckers.
