It’s spring break, y’all, and if it’s not this week for you, it might as well be with the arrival (at last) of 35 Denton weekend.
Didn’t get to catch all the sets you wanted? Don’t worry, we at GoodBAMMSho can help you out with the sets we got to check out ourselves, starting Friday night.
Friday
Ready, set, fest.
Blending visual art with music has never been a simple task for most. Two different mediums can at times fight one another artistically and confuse or disconnect the audience.
Sometimes the right music can find the artists through seemingly separate channels only to collectively follow the art back to the true inspiration.
Maybe that is how painter/writer Ty Clark and filmmaker Kristopher Rutherford found the band Seryn? Clark and Rutherford have both been inspired to share Seryn's "work of art" in sound. The concept is to tell the story of six individual artists standing before a blank canvas that will soon become the bands new album! This effort to capture Seryn's musical journey through film will be titled "A Canvas of Sound: Seryn, An Independent Film".
Last week was a great week for local music (as if there’s ever a poor week in DFW), especially for the folks over in Denton who got a lot of love with the recent 35 Denton lineup additions and a jam-packed show at Hailey’s featuring Cutter, Vulgar Fashion, Zhora and headliners Blackstone Rangers.
First up at the Friday night jam fest was electro-punk duo Cutter, kicking off the high energy of the night and drawing in the crowd toward the projector-lit stage.
Alongside the creepy-crawly video loop behind them were ominous growls echoing throughout the bar from both members, channeling punk rock classics while adding a sophisticated layer of electro-synth and raucous drums.
As the venue filled up the boys kept the energy flowing and the feet moving, giving everyone the feeling that the night would be a festive one.
