Description
A big wave is coming. A wave of sound, of feeling; of arm after arm shooting up to meet the giddy noise of a live show. And the force behind it? Brooklyn’s own Razor Braids. Through soaring harmonies and driving guitars, the queer femme trio has honed a magnetic sound that combines the vulnerable self-awareness of indie rock with dynamic instrumentation anchored in a 90s alternative ethos. After the release of singles “Nashville, Again” and a cover of Weezer’s “Buddy Holly,” Razor Braids opened up the main stage at Boston Calling 2023 — sharing a stage with The Beaches and The Foo Fighters — and toured through the Midwest, South, and East Coast as headliners and opening for The Worriers. The band has brought their energetic stage presence to SXSW as official artists as well as Music Hall of Williamsburg, Sultan Room, and Elsewhere as direct support for Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, Jigsaw Youth and Anna Shoemaker, respectively. In addition to multiple features on Spotify’s Fresh Finds playlists, Razor Braids’ music has been warmly received by Blogothque, BrooklynVegan, NME, SiriusXMU, WFMU, Philthy Mag, Creem, Analogue Trash, The Boston Globe, and more. In 2024, the band plans to tour their upcoming sophomore album, Big Wave, expanding on their singular balance of tightly layered vocals, heavy riffs and reflective lyrics with more boldness and sense of purpose than ever before.
