Bad Vibrations are delighted to have Hull shoegazers bdrmm play Moth Club. They are signed to legendary shoegaze label Sonic Cathedral, who fell in love with the band after hearing their single 'C:U': "an instant classic; half-DIIV, half-Disintegration.
One constant in this most surreal of times has been the influx of great records released so far in 2020. The latest of those is Bedroom, the debut LP from Hull, England-based five-piece bdrmm. Released in 2020 via highly respected British independent label Sonic Cathedral, Bedroom is the culmination of four years hard graft that literally started in founder member, guitarist and frontman Ryan Smith’s bedroom.
Having started bdrmm in 2016—initially as a solo vehicle for his own compositions—Smith then enlisted the services of brother Jordan on bass, Joe Vickers on guitar, Danny Hull on synths, and most recent recruit Luke Irvin on drums. With a settled line-up in place, it wasn’t long before their collective wares started to attract attention from blogs and labels alike. So, when Nathaniel Cramp from Sonic Cathedral offered to put out “C.U.” last summer as part of the label’s seven-inch Singles Club, there was no turning back.
Having since put out a four-track EP entitled If Not, When? as a precursor to Bedroom, it’s probably fair to say expectations were high. Comparisons with the likes of DIIV, Beach Fossils, Deerhunter, and The Cure have already been thrown at bdrmm, and while lesser acts might find such grandiose luminaries daunting. The five-piece have simply taken it in their stride, conjuring up an instantly recognizable sound all of their own.
This event was previously scheduled for 28/10/2020, but will now take place on 28/04/2021.
