Live Music: Essie and The Hum
Sat, October 10 – Sun, October 11
11:00 PM – 1:00 AM at Campstore
Emerging from the hush of the Pacific Northwest, meet Essie and The Hum. At the center of the four-piece, Essie’s storytelling and chants bring you into an ethereal, shoegazey dreamscape.
Inspired by the raw storytelling of Big Thief, the honesty of Julia Jacklin, and the atmospheric rock of Mazzy Star, the band blends laid-back rock with shimmering indie folk.
Every song is written by Essie, whose guitar and vocals are elevated by the fluid rhythm section of Jaxx Ward (bass) and Steven Douglas (drums), with Paul Danowski on lead guitar and background vocals. Together, they create a sound that stretches from slow-burn ballads to funky punk rock.
