underscores

On October 31, 2026 at the Trabendo, underscores, the alias of April Harper Grey, arrives with a pop that blends electronics and guitars without boxing in genres. First noticed online for productions marked by dubstep, she quickly broadened her palette to include hyperpop, pop‑punk, emo and indie. From early EPs up to Fishmonger (2021), her songwriting has asserted itself between glitchy beats, abrasive riffs and candid melodies. With Wallsocket (2023), extended in 2024 by a Director’s Cut, she injected a narrative dimension that crosses rock, folk, country and shoegaze, while retaining a direct sense of the hook.

On stage, underscores assembles these elements into a mobile, taut live set: finely honed electronics, biting guitars, sharp ruptures followed by more melodic breaths. Recent tracks mingle with more upfront songs in a play of contrasts that moves from intimate bedroom pop to a wall of sound. It’s a proposition that blurs boundaries without unnecessary effects, crafted for those who follow hyperpop as well as curious fans of alternative rock. See you at the Trabendo on October 31, 2026.
