Yeison Landero

Slowdive
January 31 at Mass MoCA in North Adams, Massachusetts
Formed in 1989, UK shoegaze legends Slowdive burned brightly on the early ’90s alternative scene and collaborated in the studio with Brian Eno before burning out in 1995. But the band reunited in 2014 and has been steadily touring and recording ever since, releasing an eponymous full-length in 2017 and the well-received Everything is Alive in 2023. It’s in support of the latter disc—which All Music called “equally experimental and accessible, brimming over with aquatic atmosphere and pointed emotional feeling, and full of familiar joys and new surprises”—that the dreamy quintet pays this visit to the Berkshires’ beloved Mass MoCA arts complex. 8pm. $45.
