About this event
Ecca Vandal, a seemingly sonic contradiction who draws inspiration from both Nina Simone and Fugazi, has announced her new album 'LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO UNFOLLOW,' due May 22nd via Loma Vista Recordings. LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO UNFOLLOW is a record about subtraction, cutting ties with what drains your energy and distorts your vision, according to Vandal: “The systems. The trends. The illusions of connection. I find empowerment in being loud and noisey especially as a woman in this global moment who grew up in a culture that told me I could not be those things.”Embodying that raw, unfiltered energy, the announcement arrives with a new song and visual for “SORRY! CRASH!.” It follows previously released singles “MOLLY,” “CRUISING TO SELF SOOTHE,” “BLEED BUT NEVER DIE,” and “THEN THERE’S ONE.”This year, Ecca Vandal made her Coachella debut, followed by an Australian tour supporting Deftones. No stranger to big stages, she and her band have played Camp Flog Gnaw and toured with Limp Bizkit, Queens of the Stone Age, IDLES, The Prodigy, and more. Her high-energy performances have become a trademark, pulling from punk, jazz, hip-hop, and electronic into a distinct sound. This concert is in collaboration with Flood Floorshows. They’ve been working on DIY shows, a vinyl label and distro since 2011. As no other, they really have their finger on the pulse when it comes to the subgenres of punk, indie, emo and hardcore scenes. They have a personal approach for promoting events with national and international artists, always working around three basic principles: passion, independence and amplification!“We’re passionate about working out shows whereby we do our very best to offer young artists opportunities in the larger club circuit. By ‘independence’ we mainly mean that we don’t want to be weighed down by sponsors or permanent subsidies. In this way, we remain alert and active in our search for challenging and exciting new artists.” - Kristof Van den Eede, founder of Flood Floorshows.
