Sat May 30 - 8:30pm-9:20pm Girl Loves Distortion live, breathe, and create in Washington, DC, in a working-class community slowly turning more mixed income. While this may not be uncommon with other DC bands, the neighborhood where they practice and write music together seeps into the DNA of their discography and musical catalogue. As a result their songs are tinged with an urgency, edge, and point of view that deals with societal issues, diversity, and interpersonal relationships. This could very well be a recipe for pretense, but the band knows how to temper weighty issues with savvy, sarcasm, and self-deprecation that disarm any heavy-handedness. | ||||||||||
