An Evening with El Perro Del Mar and Lykke Li
with special guest Anna Ternheim
at the El Rey
7pm $19
El Perro del Mar's From the Valley to the Stars builds on the band's haunting doo-wop vibe with organs, pianos, and glittery orchestrations (the latter courtesy of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra). Mastermind Sarah Assbring conceived the atmospheric follow-up to her critically acclaimed, self-titled debut as a thematic record, traversing the lowest and highest of emotional heights. Avoiding faux depth for something more surreal, Assbring cloaks old-fashioned folk in pained croons and heavy echoes — the perfect reflections of her dark Scandinavian sensibilities. El Perro del Mar bring their partly cloudy stage presence to town tonight alongside buzz-worthy avant-pop princess Lykke Li.
