It's been a great year for Deerhunter.  Appealing to some of their predecessors and influences alike, Deerhunter recently finished touring with Spoon in support of their new album.  Deerhunter's Halcyon Digest has been released on Kranky Records, with peers such as Growing and Tomorrowland sharing space on the same label over the years, and they've played some pretty impressive dates and rooms in the past six months.  They've also had opening slots with The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Nine Inch Nails and have made stops at two of the most important festivals in the world, Tennessee's indie-centric Coachella and Matt Groening's All Tomorrow's Parties across the pond.  This Altlanta based quartet takes influences from all across the spectrum of music, including garage rock, noise rock, du-wop and pop, and their sound uniquely carries all of these elements in a way that charms and kills.   With their live show being hailed by celebrities of rock as well as critics, Deerhunter will swing into Boston to play the new Royale.  This show is another great example of The Bowery Presents curating some of the best bands in the world, bringing them to Boston, and continuously adding value to the once dead scene downtown.  GO TO THIS SHOW.

Deerhunter began in 2001 with the ambition of fusing the lulling hypnotic states induced by ambient and minimalist music with the klang and propulsion of garage rock. The band has weathered chaotic line-up changes, the death of a member, and much discouragement. Their live performances almost always leave audiences polarized, and have been referred to by Karen O of the yeah yeah yeah’s in NME as bordering on “a religious experience.”
