Studio B - Thunderheist played (pics), 5 more events to go
photos by Lori Baily
Canadian electronic duo Thunderheist played Studio B on June 19th as part of their summer North American tour. Wallpaper opened. Live, Thunderheist’s Isis and Grahm Zilla added a drummer to round out the lineup. PaperMag was there…
The threesome didn’t take the stage Friday night until well into the wee hours, 2 a.m. to be exact (so, Saturday), and they commanded the room for about an hour. Grahm expertly fiddled with buttons and dials as Isis stole the show, lead singer and hype woman combined. “I was nervous,” she confessed. She admitted to having been worried that no one would know who they were, that they’d be this random act without a fanbase to rev them up and bring the evening full circle. If indeed she expected this sad display, she and her team must have been happily surprised, as seemingly no one was unfamiliar with their set. Based on their energetic performance, it’s safe to say anyone who entered with no knowledge exited a schooled fool.
As of now, there are five more events until the Brooklyn venue closes for good. Those include a “Fourth of July Independence Day Blowout” and a show with punk band Tragedy. Tickets for four of the events are for sale at Ticketweb.
