[DID NOT ATTEND: February 8, 2025] Phantogram / meija
For reasons I don’t really understand, I thought that Phantogram was My Brightest Diamond. The bands’ names are not similar and they don’t sound much alike. But I was sure that I had seen Phantogram open for someone. And I had not.
As it turns out, I’ve been vaguely down on Phantogram for a while, and yet there’s been a song on the radio recently that I really like. And when I listened to some more of their music I realized that I like them quite a lot–they remind me of Chvrches. And so I thought I’d grab a ticket for this show.
And then I realized that we had a commitment that night, so all of my dithering was pointless. But I’ll definitely be listening to more of them.
meija is LA based producer and songwriter Jamie Sierota. He makes synth-drenched, indie pop adjacent rock. It’s a little low-key and chill for me, but it seems like a decent pairing for Phantogram.
