NYC Artists on the rise: RARECHILD at Pianos on 04.26 and Glasslands on 05.04

Many of you may remember Rahim, an angular, post rockish indie band signed to Les Savy Fav’s Frenchkiss Records. Some of the members previously involved with that project formed RARECHILD, which released a debut 7" in January (cover in the picture). Rare Child shares with Rahim a rock sound rich in percussive sounds, although here we find ourselves immersed in decidedly less aggressive and more mysterious and sophisticated 80s atmospheres, reminiscent of Depeche Mode (in the vocal department) and Peter Gabriel (in the arrangements). You can see Rare Child live at Pianos on April 26 and at Glasslands on May 04.
