Petracovich, Samarah and Tyger That Sleeps
A rare special Thursday night show!
Petracovich is a lo-fi experience of glitch-box aged songs, old pianos, muffled drums, sonic textures and the orchestration of vintage carnivals and soft parades with bittersweet vocals and the heartbreak of melancholy beauty. "Like Aimee Mann fronting Sparklehorse, Petracovich mastermind Jessica Petters produces a hypnotic dreamtime soundtrack, all misty insinuations and shimmering mirages" - Pitchfork Media
Based out of San Francisco, Petracovich is Jessica Peters performing under her old-world family name taken from her great-grandfather, Abraham Petracovich, who emigrated by himself from Russia at the age of eleven. Abraham was known to sit in the parlor dressed in his best suit listening to the New York opera. The music of Petracovich pays homage to this heredity of musical reverence.
Petracovich is currently on a 40 city national tour in support of her just released second album - We Are Wyoming. Her music has been aired on over 200 CMJ stations and featured in over 60 publications.
---Rarely do electronic and organic come together with such a comfortable, tactile sheen.--- - San Francisco Bay Guardian
"It---s like having a flying dream, or lying out in a field of green grass, all up in the ether." - Portland Mercury
"An amazingly beautiful, fragile, airy and highly creative work of art." - Agouti Music
Samarah blends glitchy beats and soundscapes sprinkled with ethereal vocals and minimal, elegant arrangements. Her sound is a dreamy, fluttering minimal sound that floats somewhere between IDM and trip hop.
Tyger that Sleeps -- Catchy melodies and gloomy soundscapes combine to sink listeners to new levels of depression but then subtly bring them back to the surface. Brad Wik and Jake Becker are ready to take the world by storm.
