P.E.A.R.L., Juana / Anastasia Kristensen, John Raffaele / Bob Maynard & Cassandra Croft
About This Event
At Public Records the bill pairs P.E.A.R.L. with Juana, Anastasia Kristensen, John Raffaele, Bob Maynard and Cassandra Croft. Kristensen’s Copenhagen-rooted DJ practice mines off‑grid electronics and adventurous mixing; Juana moves between folktronica-informed songwriting and stripped, percussive club textures. Raffaele favors transitions treated as composition and patient, textural passages, while P.E.A.R.L. foregrounds ’90s‑tinged rock/pop songwriting and direct band dynamics.
