On Tuesday, Nov. 3, Skylar Spence, formerly known as Saint Pepsi and in real life known as Ryan DeRobertis will make his way to The Bishop on his country-wide tour in support of his album, Prom King.
The record elevated DeRobertis from a well-known electronic, sample-heavy musician online to enjoying airtime on radio stations and earning glowing reviews from the likes of Pitchfork and Stereogum.
Critics describe his music as "nu-wave" and "vaporwave" and other "nu"-genres that mean little to those outside of the music critic world. Translation: groovy music meets synths from the new wave era with a dash of R&B and electronic.If you're a fan of Neon Indian or Joywave, you'll definitely enjoy this show.
Opening up for Skylar Spence is 21st century disco act Rollergirl! and Bloomington's very own Vista Kid Cruiser
