Grove x DEBBY FRIDAY
Wednesday 3 May
Grove and DEBBY FRIDAY will be co-headlining at Corsica Studios on May 3rd.
Melding together elements of punk-infused dancehall, jungle, bass and pop, Grove is a Bristol-based producer, vocalist and DJ with a constantly morphing sound. Grove’s noise concoctions come from the ‘feminine’ and ‘masculine’ energies that reside within, filtering them through a sensuous & rave-centric lens, with lyrics inspired by political angst and queer euphoria.
As sharp new voice for 2021, Grove released their debut EP ‘Queer + Black’ in February. ‘Queer + Black’ is an exploration of identity, both personal and political, and a deft combination of sharp hooks and splintering beats beamed in from a club in 3021 AD. This was compounded at the end of 2021 with a collaboration track ‘BBB’ with quickly ascending queer icon Lynks, and another EP ‘SPICE’ with production from members of Giant Swan and YOKEL, connecting the dots between queerness and dancehall music.
DEBBY FRIDAY is a musician, filmmaker and writer based in Toronto, Ontario. A self-described experimentalist, her work spans the spectrum of the audio-visual. Her multi-disciplinary art practice explores themes of power, the esoteric and the erotic.
She has released two self-produced and engineered EPs, 2018’s BITCHPUNK and 2019’s DEATH DRIVE (DEATHBOMB ARC). The latter was was accompanied by her first music video and directorial debut for the lead single FATAL, which was subsequently nominated for the 2020 Prism Prize Award.
