From Vancouver in Canada, post-punk outfit ACTORS released a string of popular singles, starting with \u201cPost Traumatic Love\u201d in 2012, building a dedicated fanbase while eschewing a debut album release for the band\u2019s first six years of existence. In 2018, the Jason Corbett-led foursome signed with Toronto-based Artoffact Records and released its long-awaited debut, It Will Come to You, and quickly became one of the marquee acts on the label.<\/p>\n
Songs like \u201cL\u2019appel du Vide,\u201d \u201cSlaves,\u201d \u201cFace Meets Glass,\u201d and \u201cBury Me\u201d are bangers that glisten via Corbett\u2019s production job: infectious beats propel warm layers of synth (courtesy Shannon Hemmett), bass (Jahmeel Russell), and drums (Adam Fink). Corbett writes, produces, mixes, and masters all ACTORS music at his own Vancouver studio, Jacknife Sound and names David Bowie as a fundamental influence \u2013 Bowie\u2019s sense of confidence and creativity are in full effect on It Will Come to You. But much more than a retro act, this is music that stands all on its own, full of life and complete with unforgettable hooks. Perhaps best described as a \u201cpost-post-punk\u201d band, ACTORS belongs in the mix alongside bands like The Soft Moon and Cold Cave who are pushing music forward via a deep knowledge of the past.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2350,"template":"","festival":[44],"class_list":["post-2352","act","type-act","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","festival-2023-en"],"acf":{"website":"https:\/\/www.actorstheband.com\/","facebook_url":"","spotify_url":"","instagram_url":"","tiktok_url":"","date":null,"begin":"","end":"","location":"","amphi_festival_premiere":false},"yoast_head":"\n
