Santah will be performing at the Drunken Unicorn on Thursday, September 8th


Santah is performing on Thursday, September 8th at The Drunken Unicorn.



Santah was born with their heads in the clouds and their feet stuck in the dirty ground. Luckily, right before they grew up for good, a tidal wave swept them up, quick as can be, and sent them teetering across the continent. They howled in confusion when that water came, arms all flailing, their faces purple as raisins. But they rolled back their eyes and just like that, they were in some holy home, right there in their own head, right there on that ocean, riding a wild and blurry-eyed vision, just being the most confused and luckiest boys to ever live or die in the whole goddamn world, just like that, all over the place.

Ocean Is Theory are the third performer of the evening.



"Atlanta pop/rock band Ocean is Theory recently released a free single entitled “Best Intentions” from its upcoming EP Future Fears, available May 23.

The track is decidedly more poppy than most of the band's earlier offerings, which often featured a slightly harder edge. "Best Intentions" rounds out those edges with catchy hooks and more diverse instrumentation.

After two self-released records and years of unrelenting touring, Ocean is Theory found a home with Razor & Tie last November, and Future Fears is the quartet's first release with the independent label. A currently untitled full-length is due on Razor & Tie later this summer." - Eric Brown / Creative Loafing Atlanta

This Piano Plays Itself are the second band of the evening.



"“Psychedelic shoegaze post-rock pop.” That’s the closest Justin Newton, drummer for This Piano Plays Itself, can get to describing his band’s sound. He laughs as he says it. “I hate that question. ‘What do you guys sound like?’ or ‘Who are your influences?’ It’s like asking, ‘Which bands are you trying to rip off?’”

Hailing from Atlanta, This Piano Plays Itself certainly has a sound that defies pigeonholing. There’s no shortage of reverb-heavy guitars and layered effects, yet amid complex swirling soundscapes there are elements of simplicity and space, a testament to the group’s musical maturity. Newton has a massive drum sound and the chops to match, but you won’t catch him overplaying. “I’ve learned it’s more important to stay in the pocket rather than just playing whatever I think sounds rad,” he chuckles." - John Granofsky / Flagpole
