MoMA Nights with Tei Shi @ MoMA, Aug 27

27 August 2015

New York’s MoMA brings a performance by singer-songwriter Tei Shi for its MoMA Nights series, taking place at its Sculpture Garden on at 6:30pm tonight, August 27.

Brooklyn-based Tei Shi will perform vocals in her characteristic layered style, incorporating R&B, shoegaze and indie pop to create what Noisey described as “entwined vocal loops and shivery sonics”.

Bringing in influences from her birth town of Buenos Aires, as well as Bogotá, Vancouver, and Boston where she lived before settling down in Brooklyn, Tei Shi has released a stream of music over the last few years, including the six-song album Saudades, several singles, and the EP Verde.

Accompanying Tei Shi will be Alex Schaaf on guitar and keyboards and Gabriel Smith on drums, and the performance will be preceded by a DJ set from Newtown Radio‘s Leisure Suite host Lomé.
