School of Seven Bells has a show coming up at the Blue Moose, and the fine folks at Vagrant Records given us two tickets to the show to give away.
Not familiar with School of Seven Bells? The are Alejandra and Claudia Deheza (of On!Air!Library) and Benjamin Curtis (of Secret Machines), who joined forces in 2006. Their songs meld together echoes of 90s Dream Pop — think Cocteau Twins, Lush, and My Bloody Valentine — with digital dance pop rhythms. The pure tone of Alejandra & Claudia’s voice float over pillowy clouds of synths and guitar. Their polished pop songwriting and love of warm, enveloping instrumental texture are nearly irresistable, and why would you want to resist, anyway?
From their new album Disconnect From Desire, the lead-off track “Windstorm”:
