[DID NOT ATTEND: May 16, 2025] Sunflower Bean / Laveda
I’ve seen Sunflower Bean twice. The first time I loved them. The second time I loved them for different reasons. But since then they have drifted away from the sound I liked into a more.
Actually, I see that they have recently put out a new album that changes their sound quite a bit again. So clearly they are a band who are experimenting with sounds. I will have to keep tabs on them for the next time they come around.
Laveda is an NYC-based indie rock band formed by Ali Genevich and Jake Brooks, known for their blend of dreamy, shoegaze, and ’90s grunge sounds.
I listened to a few songs and really liked them–possibly more than Sunflower Bean, although I’ll have to see what this new album sounds like.
