L'Rain, Eucademix (Yuka Honda)
About This Event
The bill pairs L’Rain — Taja Cheek’s experimental project that moves between rock/pop, hip-hop and R&B with a neo-psychedelic art-pop edge — with Eucademix, the studio-minded project of Yuka Honda. Both acts bring arrangement-focused, close-listening sets to the Knitting Factory: Honda’s precision reflects a long record of collaboration, while L’Rain’s early material was shaped in the period after her mother’s death.
