Pavo Pavo

Pavo Pavo is an experimental pop band from Brooklyn, NY. Their debut record, Young Narrator in the Breakers, will be released on Bella Union in November 2016. The band started writing together while studying music at Yale, and since then its five members have worked closely with indie and classical heavyweights such as Here We Go Magic, Roomful of Teeth, Dave Longstreth, and San Fermin. Stereogum describes their music as “weightless pop that sounds like it was beamed down from a utopian future”

Young Narrator in the Breakers walks through its songs with symphonic elegance – guitar stabs, washed out harmonies, and rumbling synthesizers come and go like guests at a party. The record describes the magic and panic of adult life; a breaker is a wave whose potential energy is being transformed into turbulent kinetic energy. Co-produced by Danny Molad (Lucius) and Sam Cohen (Yellowbirds), it is a romantic record in the tradition of Elephant 6, and a cohesive record in the tradition of Grizzly Bear. Introducing: Pavo Pavo.

Mrs. Adam Schatz

Mrs. Adam Schatz is the solo extension of “Landladyland” — a world best described as the the solar system of Adam Schatz. Its planets include the acclaimed Landlady, Father Figures (see their NPR Tiny Desk Concert), The Shoe-Ins, Afrobeat band Zongo Junction, a multi-year history of Adam Schatz & Friends residencies and shows, the new large ensemble improvisational project Adam Schatz’s Civil Engineering, and Schatz’s connected work as a promoter, organizer, and producer (including his co-direction of NYC’s Winter Jazzfest, curation for the Red Bull Music Academy nationwide, and his annual benefit bash, the Landlady Holiday Spectacular).
 
Mrs. Adam Schatz has performed frequently in the past two years, including shows with Those Darlins, Adia Victoria, and Made of Oak (Nick Sanborn of Sylvan Esso). Primordial versions of Landlady songs and hyper-evolved covers of kindred artists like The Band, Allen Toussaint, Arthur Russell, Elliott Smith, and Randy Newman tend to populate his extremely moving performances — where his native instrument, the tenor saxophone, enters his vocabulary in ways unseen in any other part of Landladyland.
 
“Adam Schatz, the chief songwriter of Landlady, is arguably one of the most versatile and exciting musicians in recent years.” -Paste
 
“The penetrating tone of Mr. Schatz’s Farfisa organ summons garage-rock and international psychedelia; crisp percussion patterns, moving in and out of odd meters, touch on carnivals, military parades, Minimalism, swing and world music. Guitar lines can have the delicacy of folk-rock, the lilt of Congolese rumba or a spaghetti-western twang.” -The New York Times
 
“Schatz has a truly rare knack for establishing an instant connection through the force of his words – they caress, support, and embrace instead of the normal glancing blow…Landlady strikes a chord as the everyman’s gospel; secularly spirit-rousing but no less powerful, articulate in vision but universal in its delivery.” -I Guess I’m Floating

Omhouse

Toronto’s Omhouse plays proggy art-rock with a flair for the melodramatic. They’ve been compared to artists like XTC, Peter Gabriel and “an over caffeinated Dirty Projectors”.
