Little HEADbutt Presents: ABOLISHVICTORY! w/ French Inhaler, Hoverboard

Little HEADbutt Presents: ABOLISHVICTORY! w/ French Inhaler, Hoverboard at Sleeping Village, Chicago on Thu, Aug 13, 9:00 PM. Tickets from $24.72. Lineup, start time and tickets on Ckord.

$15 Adv + Fees | 21+ ABOLISHVICTORY! are the purveyors of the original sounds of R&Beyond - ranging sonically from dulcet to distorted, folk roots to politically charged house music, searing guitar solos and deep dance breaks to reach through the screens and touch you in your heart. French Inhaler is a Chicago-based trio composed of singer and keyboardist Ashvin Prakash, bassist Adam O’Leary, and drummer Zane Chao. Drawing on the restrained intensity of Joy Division, the melodic melancholy of The Cure, and the electronic minimalism of Kraftwerk, the group blends synthesizers with live bass and drums to create a sound rooted in early 1980s new wave and post-punk traditions. Their music favors atmosphere and precision over excess, balancing cool electronic textures with the physicality of a live rhythm section. The result is a thoughtful, disciplined approach to revivalism — one that nods respectfully to its influences while maintaining a clear contemporary voice. Without any set in stone sound, Hoverboard explore the sonic landscape of whatever path they end up following. They don't fully belong to any certain genre, but have self proclaimed their sound as "aggressively dreamy." They've grown a reputation for energetic and deafening live shows; and to date have organized a handful of tours that have seen them play all across America. With no shortage of material, Hoverboard are a tour de force.
