Event Details
A coheadliner with Dehd & Deeper
DEEPER
Deeper’s Origins date back to 2014 when prior to releasing any material an abrupt line-up change left the Chicago based band looking for a new direction. Singer and guitarist Nic Gohl along with childhood friend, guitarist Mike Clawson and drummer Shiraz Bhatti threw out all of their old songs and brought on bassist Drew McBride to round out the lineup. The subsequent demos leaned on intricate guitar interplay, direct “of the times” vocals and a spirit that speaks to the band’s collective place in this pit of endless internet.
Deeper honed their sound over the course of 2015 & 16’ in basements, lofts, and anywhere that would have them. Touring the demos and landing at a fully realized inflection point. Call it Post-Punk, call it Indie Rock, it’s a record that steps in and out of boxes filtered through an unmistakable midwestern lens. As social norms and political ideologies distort, writing and creating art was the only way to control the growing voice in the band’s collective head. The conceptualizing of the album started and stopped over that two year time warp culminating in a few feverish tracking sessions in late 2017. What was left is a stark shimmering portrait of a modern American experience. It’s observational, poetic and influenced by nuance. Take opening track “Pink Showers” which was conceived through the grid lock of Chicago traffic and the “pursuit” to make your monotonous life meaningful. “I can try, don’t you see that I’m no waste”, rings out over chiming guitars and a steady rhythmic pulse. There’s something burning in us, driving our choices, begging for an answer.
The band has made their mark locally supporting like minded acts Omni, Protomartyr, Chris Cohen & fellow Chicago powerhouses Whitney & Ne-Hi along with their own sold out headlining shows. Fresh off official after show appearances at Pitchfork & Lollapalooza festivals Deeper’s self titled debut album will see release May 25th 2018 On New York based Fire Talk Records.

Love is everyday magic. That’s the impression you get listening to Water, the new album by Chicago trio Dehd. Love rises up into the atmosphere like steam off a summer sidewalk and makes you wild. Love bre
