Concert by George Clanton, a Los Angeles artist known for vaporwave and hypnagogic pop, at the Fine Line Music Cafe.
George Clanton plays Fine Line Music Cafe on Monday, November 2, his only Minneapolis date this fall. He's a Los Angeles artist who's built a name as a pioneer of vaporwave and hypnagogic pop, two styles that lean on nostalgia and a certain hazy, dreamlike quality. If you've heard of him but haven't seen him, he's known for tracks like "Slide" and "Livin' Hell."
His approach to the music is something he talks about quite specifically: he spends a lot of time tweaking synthesizer presets to find the right melodies and textures. That's a good way to understand what he does—it's as much about the sound and the feel of the electronics as it is about the songs themselves. His live shows are described as atmospheric, and they draw on that same signature sound. The set is just him, so you'll hear that synth-heavy production front and center.
Fine Line Music Cafe is one of the city's premier live-music venues, praised for its acoustics and intimate atmosphere. It sits on the main level of the Consortium Building in the Warehouse District, just a few blocks from First Avenue. It's a cashless venue, so keep that in mind if you're planning to grab drinks or merch.
