Synopsis

Before there was Spotify, there were burnt CDs, Kazaa downloads and Creative Zens full of songs you did not want your parents to know about. elysrei & friends take you back to the alt rock and emo anthems that soundtracked the 2000s, featuring songs by Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Evanescence, Avril Lavigne, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and more.

 

A girl who grew up on music made mostly by boys, elysrei brings a killer band—Alex Hooi (lead guitar), Adam Ang (rhythm guitar), Nathanael Nilesh (keys), John Paul Kwan (bass guitar), and Zach Liu (drums)—or two sets of gut-punch ballads, full-band bangers and iconic sing-alongs.
