NYC band GIFT are back in September at Sneaky Pete's. They return with newfound dance energy on their gothic new record Illuminator. Their psychey wash is suddenly crisp, direct and fully realised.
Having assembled on a lark in the Big Apple from roots as diverse as Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Brazil and Boston, GIFT leaned on their collective deep experiences in numerous non-performing aspects of the biz as part of settling on a bold new sound, a dizzying blend of early shoegaze, classic 90s alternative rock and even modern pop.
GIFT emerged somewhat fully formed on their 2022 debut album Momentary Presence, a testament to the untapped creative potential laying deep within, and it wasn’t long before the band was pricking up the ears of listeners both at home and across the Atlantic Ocean.
Now Illuminator, their August 23 debut album for New York independent label Captured Tracks, is the payoff of GIFT’s ever-growing musical and human chemistry. And while nods are apparent to label forerunners such as Beach Fossils, DIIV and Wild Nothing, GIFT are shepherding those elements into new vessels for the present moment, sleek, often danceable and frequently mesmerizing.
