2023 8:00PM doors -- music at 8:30PM ••• ALL AGES $18 in advance / $20 at the door Princess Chelsea from Auckland, New Zealand instagram.com/wonderfulprincesschelsea chamber pop Kinneret kinneret.world psychedelic indie Drainer instagram.com/drainer_sf post-grunge power pop shoegaze Princess Chelsea -from Auckland, NZ -Cult producer Princess Chelsea crafted her upcoming “nervous breakdown album” Everything is Going to be Alright, at home in pastoral Aotearoa New Zealand. The album, due this October, is a comforting offering. These aren’t wallowing sad songs, instead, instead it’s twin opening and closing tracks chronicle Chelsea Nikkel's recovery, and are intended to be a cathartic listen for anybody who might need it. Princess Chelsea is the recording project of New Zealand based producer Chelsea Nikkel. A classically trained pianist, Nikkel lent her talents to K road favourites Teen Wolf in the mid-2000s, and later in the touring lineup The Brunettes. When she wasn't performing, she worked as a composer for a local recording studio, all the while refining her songwriting and production skills. Her full-length debut as Princess Chelsea, Lil' Golden Book, was released in late 2011 and first set the template of her music with its sweet melodies, baroque musical arrangements, childlike vocal delivery, and lyrics filled with cynical wit. The album spawned the viral hit 'Cigarette Duet' with its 95 million YouTube views (and counting). Next up was a synth-heavy concept album about a future world rendered helpless in the face of depression brought on by technology. The Great Cybernetic Depression was released by Lil' Chief and Flying Nun in June 2015 and followed soon after by an album of cover versions, Aftertouch. Chelsea's songwriting chops reached new heights on her album, Loneliest Girl, though the album continued to feature her trademark arrangements using classic 80s Synths (Yamaha DX7, Roland D-50), ambient guitars, and orchestral instruments but in a more refined and simple manner than on her previous releases. This album spawned another mighty online hit 'I Love My Boyfriend' which has over 45 million streams on Spotify alone. Kinneret -from Los Angeles, CA -A self-described "psychedelic indie space cowgirl," 20-year-old Kinneret exudes a unique and magnetic aura. Her brand is one of inclusivity and creativity, and those who love her, love her. Her single “No Wind Resistance!” has amassed over 70 million plays on Spotify to date, featuring shimmery synths and soaring vocals over trunk-rattling 808’s and trap drums, hitting a niche previously untapped.
