The Live Beijing Music are set to invade School Bar once again with Volume 4 of their "School House Rock" series! Shows put on by LBM never cease to disappoint, and this one shall be no different. Straight from LBM themselves:

School House Rock returns to it’s nosier roots with a kinetic, reverb heavy, sprawling, atmospheric showcase featuring two very special out of town debuts, as well as two of Beijing’s newest up and comers primed to explode in the next year. New dangerous sounds making their way to School Bar!

Formed in the bitter winter of 2017, Baoding noise rock outfit The Playcat already has a bit of a history with Beijing’s underground rock scene with one of their members, Yang Fan, originally cutting their teeth at D-22 with the original Birdstriking lineup – a hypnotic mix of psychedelic indie rock and shoegaze swag, the band has been rehearsing and honing their sound.

Xi'an born Shanghai raised Hei Mu’s experimental rock is influenced by post-punk and industrial music. His imaginative minimal sounds signal an eagerness to jump beyond the limitation of music so as to land on an even vaster domain.

Established in Guiyang in 2014, Run Run Run blends the together the free-wheeling sounds of the 60s and 70s and finding the patterns and beautiful happenings found in free improvisation, simplifying it and re-forging it into something hypnotic.

On the homefront, we have shoegaze outfit Default, who released their spellbinding debut California Nebula earlier this year to much acclaim, giving the young soon to be college graduates plenty to look forward to in the future as well as a record deal with SJ Records in Shanghai, who quickly picked up the release and got the band an opening slot for The White Tulips earlier this summer.

Don't miss it!
