STRFKR, Chrome Sparks, Feelings


A six-year-old electro-pop staple, STRFKR parties hard with a purpose, evenly devoting time to boogie and art without drowning in either. Now officially a “band,” frontman and multi-instrumentalist Josh Hodges incorporates his STRFKR collaborators much more effectively than the smaller-venue performances of the past. Saturday’s headlining show at the 40 Watt will be huge and overwhelmingly sweaty—the kind of sweat that can only be produced by tightly packed bodies colliding and screaming for more until the cows come home. The band’s fourth LP, Miracle Mile, released this past February via Polyvinyl, pairs STRFKR’s familiar synth-driven hooks with heaps of funk and groove that just beg for a disco ball. So, make sure to BYODB, and a towel, for an autumnal party extravaganza.
