Under the name The Blow, Khaela Maricich has released a number of music albums and toured nationally and internationally. Working in music venues as well as art spaces, her performances explore and exploit the conventions of each format. Her recent work interweaves elements of narrative performance art with traditional pop-show dynamics, while her music is an intriguing, minimalistic mix of synths, drums, and delicate vocal melodies that’s hard not to love. Although The Blow’s last album (entitled "Poor Aim: Love Songs") dates back to 2007, the project is active live and will hit Glasslands on May 15 (Acrylics will be the openers).
