Drop Electric is an experimental rock band based in Washington D.C.
and NYC. Based in melody and distortion and deeply inspired by cinema,
their live show is a combination of evocative music, unique vocals and
narrative film.
In December 2010, they released their debut album, “Finding Color in
the Ashes” at the Black Cat Mainstage in Washington, D.C. Their work has
been reviewed and or featured in The Washington Post, Mixtape Muse,
Musigh, and “All Songs Considered” on NPR.
“Beautiful video, very beautiful timelapse stuff and so I stayed… and they knocked me out. I’d seen Sigur Ros earlier in the week, we’d webcast that show, Sigur Ros is on my mind. Epic sounding instrumental band, with beautiful, beautiful vocals and here was Drop Electric, doing something sorta similar. “

“Drop Electric, at its finest, can make the sounds coming from your speakers feel vast and uncontainable. And by listening to it, for a short while you too can feel vast and uncontainable. So if that’s the effect of the recorded product, imagine the live Drop Electric experience. Can you really have a true sense of Drop Electric until your eyes, as well as your ears, have experienced them?”
