In his own words, New York City-based musician JW Francis makes “lofi jangly bedroom slacker pop with a twist of lemon.” Music journalist Alex Curle writes for When the Horn Blows that Francis’ newest album, 2023’s Dream House, is “a dreamy escape to your daftest fairytale.” This dreamlike element swirls around in upbeat and bubbly instrumentals combined with surrealist lyrics and idiosyncratic vocal inflections. The show will also have performances by Oceanic Sound Research, an ambient electronic trio from Athens featuring members of Olivia Tremor Control, Organically Programmed and Casual Ether, and multi-instrumentalist Doc Calico & John Kiran Fernandes of Elephant 6 fame performing as a duo.
