About this event
Doors: 10PM / Show: 11PM / 21+For Alice Longyu Gao, remaining indefinable has proven to be one of their most formidable strengths. As one of the pioneers of the hyperpop movement, Longyu Gao forged a path for themselves by channeling unfiltered humor and rage into their energetic work. Alice strives to open portals to their past, present and future through their work, a nonlinear journey reflected upon their debut trilogy, consisting of EP 1: High Dragon And Universe, EP 2: Lets Hope Heteros Fail, Learn, and Retire, and EP 3: Assembling symbols into my own poetry.Released October 23rd 2024 via Ł THE ŁBĘŁ, Assembling Symbols Into My Own Poetry takes the words that theyve spent their entire career scrutinizing and throws them skyward, allowing vulnerability to take control. Its the sound of a cup that has simply floweth over, its the sound of an artist whos ready to lay it all bare in the name of love. These songs were made when my life felt alive again. This music talks to my romantic soul, the fountain in my heart, which is where my art has come from since birth, Longyu Gao say of the project. Much like the fountain from which it came, Assembling offers space for reflection demolishing childhood trauma on Little Piggy or reaching anthemic epiphany on the Danny Brown collaboration Bird W/O Nest and out flows a pure expression of the messy multi-facet that make up the human experience.
