One thing is for sure: It’s WAY easier to convince your band to move from Christchurch, New Zealand, to Brooklyn when your band is comprised of just one member. Bachelorette is Annabel Alpers’ brainchild, a young lady who is in love with synths, has a magical voice, and possesses very interesting songwriting/arranging skills. Oh and, of course, who -a few months ago – convinced her band to move to Brooklyn! Her songs are melodic, electronic and rather playful, and could be described as a more electronic, psychedelic (in a Barrettesque way) version of St. Vincent. Annabel is currently enjoying some solo performances with her pre-recorded self – tonight’s one will be at Glasslands with electro-droney Brooklyn’s own Warm Ghosts. As Annabel says: “that’s what Bachelorette’s all about – playing with yourself”. – (photo by David james)
