LA Shoegaze Duo Clarion Announce First UK & Irish Dates

LA duo Clarion have announced their first UK & Irish live dates.

The hotly-tipped shoegaze duo will be touring at the end of the summer, fresh off the success of their recent ‘Blue Fairy’ EP, released via Broke Records. 

The tour dates come after the release of Blue Fairy, a spring run of packed shows supporting Panchiko, and the continued growth of their explosive breakout track “Hello Juliet,” Clarion aren’t slowing down – look for news on new releases coming up very soon.

Formed in a shared practice space in East LA, Clarion’s driven by the collective brain of Saya Oliva (vocalist/bass, she/her), Anthony Sanchez (guitar, he/him), and touring drummer Javier Flores. Pulling equally from the sounds of Sonic Youth, HUM, Black Flag, Julie, and Fennel, they’re carving out a sound akin to emotional whiplash––and it rules

Recent EP Blue Fairy is a harsh and abrasive mix of shoegaze, post-punk, and noise-rock. Throughout, the band turns chaos into catharsis as they discover their voice in real time.
