Neo psychedelia and dream pop are an ethereal and surreal listening experience that takes a deep dive into the world of illusions and fantasies. The textured layers of this genre make it an experience I love diving into quite frequently, and the band Crumb certainly fulfills this appeal.

In short, Crumb is an indie rock band and is a collaboration of Brooklyn-based musicians Lila Ramani (guitar, vocals), Jesse Brotter (bass, vocals), Bri Aronow (synthesizers, keyboard, saxophone), and Jonathan Gilad (drums). The group’s latest full-length Ice Melt is a trippy state of submerged dismal euphoria so definitely check it out if you haven’t already.

Above is a recent video from the group of them live at the Ulster Performing Arts Center in Kingston, NY. Check it out!
