Date: March 21 - 8 pm

Venue: Bandai Namco Shanghai Base Dream Hall

By the time Lany formally released the first in a series of EPs the band had established their own lane on music's crowded highway.

By 2016, and the release of Where The Hell Are My Friends, The Line Of Best Fit were praising Lany's music for its swooning melange of gilded vocals, spidery riffs, and dusky synths. Much of the music that propelled them to multi-million-stream success was recorded out of aux sockets. "It was very do it yourself," Klein smiles. "We were led by conviction and instinct - writing and recording simultaneously. We just decided: let's make a band, stick the music online ourselves, and see what happens."
