The Veldt
Looking for some outdoor Friday night fun? The second of two Duke Performances at American Tobacco in one week takes place tonight, October 1. Duke Performances presents the Veldt in concert under the Lucky Strike water tower from 6:30-8:00pm.
The outdoor concert is free and open to the public; no registration required.
Easy categorizations dont work for Raleigh and New York-rooted indie rock progenitors The Veldt, but the bands signature blend of shoegaze and soul situates its sonic and political project: a Black-led group begun in and around Chapel Hill in 1986 by brothers Daniel and Danny Chavis making unprecedented alt-pop-rock experiments in a predominately white field. (And turning this position into a broader critique see their 2007 album White Music for Black People, released under the name Apollo Heights.) Now more widely lauded for influencing the spaced-out sounds of The Weeknds early efforts, The Veldt ensure each of their new recordings, performances, and critical mentions feel like a canonical rupture and an insistent refrain: Weve always been here.
Facebook Event: Duke Performances Presents The Veldt at American Tobacco
Bring a chair, a blanket, and visit pop-ups by Parker & Otis, Boricua Soul, and Mellow Mushroom for drinks and dinner.
The amphitheater is the grassy area below the Lucky Strike water tower, and parking is available in one of three nearby decks.
Please mark your calendars now for the final shows in ATCs Duke Performances series:
Wed, Oct. 6: Rissi Palmer
