About This Event
L'Rain presents a DJ night at the Knitting Factory featuring Anysia Kim, serpentwithfeet and novelist Marlon James. The billing foregrounds song-based selectors and close listening: Anysia Kim's pop/rock-informed sets, serpentwithfeet's intimate, text‑forward R&B approach, and Marlon James's DJ appearances, all framed by L'Rain's art-pop, neo-psychedelic sensibility.
About the Artists
L'Rain
L’Rain is the performance project of New York-based experimental musician Taja Cheek, working at the crossroads of rock/pop and hip-hop/R&B with a neo-psychedelic, art-pop edge. The name traces back to her mother, Lorraine, and the earliest L’Rain recordings were shaped in the period after her death.
Anysia Kim
Anysia Kim is a rock/pop artist and DJ heard in New York City rooms like the Knitting Factory, where she has appeared on bills presented by L’Rain. In that context she’s worked alongside artists including serpentwithfeet and novelist Marlon James in DJ-set lineups, as well as sharing stages with L’Rain and serpentwithfeet.
serpentwithfeet
serpentwithfeet is the Brooklyn-based R&B project of Jonathan Josiah Wise, whose work moves between devotional intensity and minimal, text-forward songcraft. After early releases on Tri Angle, he expanded his audience through projects with Secretly Canadian, including the album *soil* and later records *Deacon* and *Grip*.
