Indie shoegaze stalwarts Film School return with their sixth full-length release and first for Sonic Ritual, We Weren’t Here, the follow-up to 2018’s Bright to Death. Whereas the band recorded the previous album while holed up together in the isolated Southern California desert enclave of Joshua Tree, the Covid pandemic forced a different kind of isolation this time around. Already divided between the SF Bay Area and Los Angeles, bassist Justin LaBo, guitarist Nyles Lannon, frontman Greg Bertens, and keyboardist Jason Ruck—each from his own quarantine home studio—had to collaborate on the songs remotely. Except for when newest member Adam Wade met up with Greg to record drums at LA’s Headwest Studio with mixer Dan Long (all wearing masks, of course), the bandmates never saw each other in person during the entire making of the album.
**Draag**
Draag began as a solo project of Adrian Acosta, trained as a mariachi singer by his father who was an established norteño musician. He went on to recruit members influenced by divergent upbringings in underground punk, no wave,
experimental jazz, and classical music training. The project has since evolved into a blissfully painful wall of sound interweaving shoegaze, ambient, electro-industrial, sludge, and something akin to Sleep meets Stereolab. Draag gained a reputation in the LA underground music scene for their sonically immersive live shows, transforming the most DIY to the most sophisticated of spaces into what was described as a dive into a Neptunian air chamber – a storm in slow motion.
**Mo Dotti**
Mo Dotti, a noise pop band from Los Angeles, paint avant punk and dream pop together to make science feel like magic. They released their first recording Blurring in June of 2020.
**Acceptable Proof Of Vaccination:** CDC Vaccination Card and a valid photo ID; A photo of CDC Vaccination Card and a valid photo ID; or Digital Vaccine Confirmation with your name and a valid photo ID. **Acceptable Proof of Negative Test within past 48 hours:** A negative COVID-19 test result from a testing provider (e.g. Curative, CVS) with your name and a valid photo ID. \*\* Zebulon COVID-19 entry policy is subject to change. \*\*
