Electronic and vaporwave musician George Clanton plays live at HQ Denver with support from ideasforconversations.
George Clanton plays HQ on Friday, October 30, with ideasforconversations opening. The show is billed as vaporwave, electronic, and indie, and it's a good way to see one of the more recognizable names in the vaporwave scene live in Denver.
Clanton is an electronic musician and singer-songwriter from Ridgeway, Virginia, who's become a key figure in vaporwave. His sound is a nostalgic pop that pulls from electropop, trip hop, grunge, and shoegaze—a mix that puts him closer to indie rock than a lot of the more abstract electronic music you'll find in the same circles. He's known for the single "Livin' Loose" and albums like Slide and Ooh Rap I Ya.
Beyond the music, he's built his own infrastructure around it: he founded the 100% Electronica label and the ElectroniCON festival, and he's collaborated with Nick Hexum and TV Girl. It's a DIY approach to underground music that's earned him a following over the years, and this show is part of that same trajectory.
