George Clanton headlines the Heaven room at The Masquerade on Saturday, November 14, with Valgur opening.
Clanton is the closest thing vaporwave produced to a functioning rock star — the label head behind 100% Electronica, the architect of a sound that pulls shoegaze guitar and nineties big-beat into the genre's sample-warped frame, and a live performer who treats an audience the way a frontman does rather than the way a laptop act does. The shows involve crowd-surfing. This is unusual for the genre.
Heaven is the biggest of The Masquerade's rooms, and it is the right call for a set built on volume and a crowd that treats the whole thing as participatory.
Doors open at 7 p.m. at 75 Martin Luther King Jr. Drive SW.
