Jessy-Lanza

Jessy Lanza, the ethereal electro R&B specter behind Pull My Hair Back  (out last year via Hyperdub) will be haunting Amnesia this Saturday as the headliner of the 15th Pro Fans ShowcasePull My Hair Back, co-written and co-produced by Junior Boys‘ Jeremy Greenspan, eschews the bloat and overly-saccharine nuances of modern pop in pursuit of raw, breathy vamping. It speaks to Lanza’s restrained but ever-present personality—-she knows how to work a room while still maintaining poise.

The same can be said for opener Running in the Fog‘s Amanda Harper. The San Franciscan pulls from 90s R&B and jazz with a keen reverence for synths and velvety vocals. This show will serve as her official record release party for her debut EP Silver, out via Father/Daughter.

Also supporting is the Bay Area’s Shock, the electronic pop project of Dan Judd of Sorcerer/Windsurf, Terri Loewenthal of Rubies, and Michael Taras.

Tickets are available here via Eventbrite for $10. Check out Jessy’s newest single, “Strange Emotion” below.
