DJ Horse Honest review of Frog at Cats Cradle

Chanel Beads made their Durham debut at Motorco Music Hall alongside Car Culture and Horse Vision, building an evening of layered electronics, gauzy guitars, and dreamlike soundscapes that blurred the line between noise and melody.

On Thursday, October 22, avant-garde punk/metal group YHWH Nailgun took the stage at Carrboro’s beloved Cat’s Cradle back room alongside alternative R&B opener Samba Jean-Baptiste. With two acts differing so greatly in creative execution, their shared ticket highlights the art of performance itself and what it means to be a musician.
