Nana Grizol

This event took place on Saturday, March 19, 2022 at 11:00 PM UTC.

Venue: Lucille An indie pop band from Athens, Georgia with a unique personality, Nana Grizol marry the cheerfully lackadaisical sound of slacker-informed bands like with the bent yet engaging psychedelic pop of the collective, all filtered through the lyrical worldview of vocalist and songwriter Theo Hilton. Incorporating a queer sensibility into his tales of life in the American South, Hilton's songs are deeply personal, alternately playful and introspective in their depiction of joy and outrage, and the use of a large, horn-enhanced ensemble adds to the drama and tonal color of his music. Nana Grizol introduced the low-budget spectacle of their music to the world on 2008's Love It Love It, with the band gaining a new level of confidence and dynamics on 2017's Ursa Minor before stripping down to spontaneous folky punk with 2019's Theo Zumm. -Mark Deming, Rovi
