Crush #234 - Black History Month

February is Black History Month, so we wanted to highlight incredible Black artists making shoegaze, noise pop and dream pop!

The first recorded use of the word 'dream pop' as genre was by A.R. Kane's Alex Ayuli to describe the band's music, making the band the pioneers of the genre! Learn more about the band here (link).

A.R. Kane

Another important pioneering shoegaze band from North Carolina was The Veldt, who toured with The Jesus and Mary Chain and the Cocteau twins, and worked with Robin Guthrie (of the Cocteau Twins). Learn more about them here (link)
