SELECT SIX: DAILY MUSIC PICKS
SELECT SIX: DAILY MUSIC PICKS
Our This Is Boise music picks for today’s Treefort festivities!
The SeshEn
5:50p | Bandshell
“The Seshen is a San Francisco Bay Area six-piece band whose songs exist between the lines: in the space between waking and dreaming, ego and collective consciousness, and that blurred horizon where earth meets sea meets sky.”
St. Terrible
1:20p | The Hideout
“An emotionally-charged romp through a series of joyful existential crises. St. Terrible is a musician, visual story-teller and performance artist based out of Boise, Idaho. They work within a wide array of genres, ranging from ambient minimalism to psychedelic folk, to create strange and emotionally rich musical experiences”
Flesh Produce
7:30p | Hound Garage
“What started as the solo electronic noise-pop project of drummer/producer Karl Fagerstrom (heavily influenced by Tobacco, Death Grips, and rare NES games) mutated with the addition of singer Myla Profitt (housing the spirit of Kathleen Hanna). It’s equal parts digital hardcore, plunderphonics, greasy synth funk, and twinkly emotronica, all in a compact duo.”
East Forest
4p | Treefort Music Hall
“East Forest is a multidisciplinary artist, producer, and ceremony guide. His work explores living authentically within a modern context through an introspective methodology that weaves together elements of electro-acoustic live music, nature, technology, brain science, and guided meditation.”
Leikeli47
8p | Main Stage
“Leikeli47’s stunning new album, Shape Up, is both an ending and a beginning. Quite literally, it is the finale of the trilogy she’s been working on since her career took off. It began in 2017 with her debut album, Wash & Set. The second of the three-album run, Acrylic, was released just a year later. But between that project and Shape Up, Leikeli took her foot off the gas and instead focused on personal growth, health, and refining a positive mental makeup.”
Sego
11:30p | Neurolux
““Art-Punk by non-punk non-artists”—Sego first caught the attention of LA tastemakers with their penchant for avant-garde grooves helming indie-pop hooks. Since its genesis in 2015, Sego’s prolific output and experimental live shows have garnered all the accolades modern indie bands dream of.”
