Pure Bathing Culture, Barbarossa – Wednesday 25 September
Posted September 23, 2013
SOLD OUT
Like twilight sea waters, there’s a whole world that lurks beneath the shimmering surface of Pure Bathing Culture’s spectral pop just waiting to be explored. It’s a world where keyboardist Sarah Versprille’s crystalline vocals waltz with Daniel Hindman’s mewing guitar lines, where soaring synth lines dance around gentle drum machine rattles, where ‘80s pop influences – Cocteau Twins, Prefab Sprout, the Eurythmics, Everything But The Girl – meet gauzy West Coast mysticism. “New age symbolism and pretty much anything that has to do with humans making sense of why we’re all here is a deep muse for us,” says Hindman, The two form the heart of a band whose mesmerising sound doesn’t come around all too often. One listen to Moon Tides, their eagerly anticipated debut album, and you’ll be pleased you hitched a ride.
