Nostalgia of the 80s is the trend of the year as far a NYC pop is concerned. Living Days – who placed 87th in The Deli’s latest Best of NYC emerging artists poll – extract all the good bits from their new wave predecessors in their slick’n’rocking electro-pop embellished with sparkling synths and riddled with hooks. The band’s signature sound is Stephonik Youth’s low register voice, which darkens the mood of swirling electronic effects and effervescent keyboard lines that merge with dance-rock rhythms, fashioning music suitable for underground club dynamics. The band has a super fun live show and will be playing at Brooklyn Bowl on May 26th within The Deli’s own NYC 2011 B.E.A.F. (Best of Emerging Artists Fest) with The Rassle and Ravens and Chimes).
