[DID NOT ATTEND: February 12, 2025] Molchat Doma / Sextile
I’m so very intrigued by Molchat Doma. I first heard about them a couple of years ago, and their bio shows them to be right up my street:
Founded in 2017 in Minsk, Belarus, and now residing in Los Angeles, MOLCHAT DOMA stands at the intersection of post punk, new wave and synth pop.
I love the idea of a band from Belarus singing in Belarusian becoming successful in the States. Indeed, when they played Philly llast year I believe they sold out Union Transfer. At least according to this blurb from 2022
Fans who missed their sold-out tour earlier this year will have a chance at redemption as the trio play larger venues, fitting for their growth.
In 2022, they played Underground Arts, in 023 they played Union Transfer and this year they are playing Franklin Music Hall–steady growth indeed.
