About this show

George Clanton plays Brooklyn Steel, a 1,800-capacity large club in East Williamsburg, on Wednesday, November 11. Also on the bill: Ryan Hemsworth. Doors open at 7 PM and the show starts at 8 PM. This one could sell out: big draw for a room this size (504k listeners, 1,800 capacity). George Clanton also has 1 other date on Go See Shows, in San Diego.

George Clanton doesn’t just produce gleaming electronic pop, he produces nostalgia too. The Los Angeles artist’s process involves tweaking synthesizer presets, but beyond searching for the right melodies and textures, he’s hoping to come upon a sound that strikes a spiritual chord. “I’m looking for something that triggers a memory or an emotion,” he says. His lyrics are direct transmissions from his soul: raw, often off-the-cuff, evocative. When you pair those words with the gauzy textures Clanton’s become known for, his music feels like a dreamy filter you can put over your own memories. Every moment feels a little more colorful, a little more comforting.
