RVA MUSIC FEST: White Laces

by | Sep 2, 2011 | COMMUNITY

This Richmond quartet plays indie rock with an emphasis on the ROCK, using gallons of distortion to give their songs a harsh, noisy feel that complicates but does not obscure the melodic tendencies at the core of their sound. White Laces have a big, loud sound that requires earplugs in a live environment, but that doesn’t mean that they’re devoid of nuance. Fans of The Jesus And Mary Chain, Sonic Youth, and My Bloody Valentine are particularly encouraged to give a closer listen. During the RVA Music Fest, White Laces will be performing on Stage One at the Main Event on Sunday September 11.
