Experimental bands Model/Actriz and Orchin to play at Milton Theatre June 22
From the underground scenes of Boston and Los Angeles, homegrown talent Cole Haden will light up the local stage with his band Model/Actriz together with LA-based band Orchin at 8 p.m., Thursday, June 22, at the historic Milton Theatre.
Known for their pulsing blend of danceable noise, visceral post-punk, and a live performance that mirrors the way the record unravels, Model/Actriz is an experiment in the primal aspects of human experience. Formed in Boston, the band draws on inspirations from a myriad of scenes, with lead singer Haden hailing from Dagsboro, and Jack and Ruben from sunny Southern California. Yet there is a certain darkness that influences and permeates their music, reminiscent of the likes of Death Grips, Savages, and Nicolas Jaar.
Orchin is the noise pop project from Jeremy McLennan. From Sydney, Australia, and Los Angeles, McLennan is the band's frontman, songwriter and producer. Orchin plays live as a four-piece with Peyton Wilson on guitar, Nathan Castiel on bass and Griffin Kisner on drums. Orchin songs play with form and effects, and draw from the moods of dystopian fiction, nostalgic sci-fi and McLennan's favorite artists like Cocteau Twins, Arthur Russell, The Smiths and Kate Bush.
Tickets are $5-$10. Milton Theatre is at 110 Union St., Milton. For more information or to purchase tickets, go to www.MiltonTheatre.com or call 302-684-3038.
