DRY RIVER YACHT CLUB

The DRYC has been steaming up the burgeoning Phoenix music scene with their unchartered narrative. Their psychologically, seductive performances and portentously potent vision, which holds the listeners imagination hostage have created a cult-like hype machine uniquely its own. The depth and range of musicality of each of the instruments is uniquely illuminated in a cohesive balance of creative symmetry by which a paranormal netherworld comes to life. Exceptional dynamics give rise to a wide expanse of emotionally provocative imagery only made more raw and palpable in the incantations of their sinuous siren, Garnet. Ever mindful of her symphonic cauldron, DRYC’s frontlady/ enchantress, hexes you immediately with sonic expressions reminiscent of Bjork’s theatrics and Ani Di Franco’s lyrical imperative. Ever evolving, the band’s categorically elusive gypsy-western-folk designation seems progressively constricting as the intensity of the songs takes on a harder-hitting swagger. Yet, in the midst of this energetic swell, the softness of a lullaby or operatic tragedy reveals itself and won’t allow you to listen perfunctorily. Ages three to ninety three are enchanted by their melodic zeal and passersby stop to stare curiously as they are unwittingly devoured by a web of joyful macabre. Let yourself be consumed and join the club on a musical voyage from which you’ll never want to return.
