Pianos is one of the few NYC venues left that still dares to host emerging artist residencies (they actually do that in two rooms). We always pay attention to these bands, because the fact they were invited means they have a good live show and an expanding fan base, which are important factors for any band. Adiós Ghost is an adventurous Brooklyn band that plays an intricate brand of avant-pop that will excite the aural canals of those of you into Yeasayer and Animal Collective. Their recent EP ‘Endless Return‘ is their first release since 2014, and it’s a very interesting record. Employing electric and electronic instruments, and also saxophones at times, the band’s arrangements shine for their transparent quality, and very processed references to African melodies and rhythms. Each song seems to be built on musical blocks that support and complement each other, resulting in airy and flickery compositions. Check out opening single ‘Tension’ below and don’t miss one of their upcoming Pianos shows on October 12,19 and 26.
