Touring with a full band to promote their 7th studio album ‘Corporal’ they play an early evening show at The Foxlowe Arts Centre on Sunday 10th May.
Lorelle Meets The Obsolete are an incredible live act, blending shoegaze, psychedelia and electronica into a unique layered and immersive sound.
BIO.
Originally from Guadalajara and now based in Ensenada, Baja California, Lorelle Meets The Obsolete formed in 2011 around the core duo of Lorena Quintanilla and Alberto González. They quickly caught the attention of the psych scene with their first two albums, On Welfare and Corruptible Faces.
Since signing with UK label Sonic Cathedral in 2013, the band has toured extensively across Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the US. Over the past decade, their sound has gradually evolved from its psychedelic roots toward a more exploratory direction, incorporating analog synths and sonic search reminiscent of bands like Wire. This progression is evident across albums such as Chambers, Balance, De Facto, and Datura. Along the way, they’ve collaborated with artists like Emma Anderson (Lush), Dälek, and Pye Corner Audio, and have earned fans in the likes of Henry Rollins and Iggy Pop.
"The band has returned triumphantly with this challenging and cool record. Highly recommended in these dystopian times!" Elizabeth Klisiewicz - Echoes And Dust
