Odd Horizon Presents // Drawstring // Major // Foreign Lives
About this Event
It's been a long while since Odd Horizon has dragged equipment up the fire escape to engage in a night of boozy rocking out at Dusk. But we're back for a night of thrilling mathy-emo pop, lucky enough to bag Drawstring and Major on their UK tour.
Usual rules apply - none of that homophobia / sexism / racism / transphobia bullshit or you'll get booted. Be good to one another and support your scene.

DRAWSTRING
Cultivating their own brand of gorgeous poppy emo from Kent, Drawstring channel intimately personal and tongue in cheek lyrics with You Blew It! style twinkly instrumentation to create headbang-worthy songs that don't skimp on musical complexity.
ffo - You Blew It!, Into It. Over It., American Football
First song to check out - What I Want

MAJOR
Angst-ridden in the most brilliant way, Major play songs that are thrilling and heartwrenching in equal measure. Earnest and sincere lyricism create vocal lines which elegantly soar over dreamily composed guitar and punchy drums to create music that is unapologetically 'emo'.
ffo - Turnover, Seahaven, Sebadoh
First song to check out - Nothing Will (those guest vocals, oosh)

FOREIGN LIVES
A local band quickly on the up, Foreign Lives have proven themselves accessible in all circles, creating powerful, unabashedly pretty songs reminscent of The National but with a mathier, more complex edge. Lead singer Josh Finn heads this five piece with an electric live performance alongside spectacularly virtuosic instrumentalism creating an incredible show.
ffo - The National, Pinegrove, TTNG
First song to check out - Ida At The Shore
