Destroyer + The Fiery Furnaces

Pitchfork Festival London

Dan Bejar returns with Dan’s Boogie – a bold, cinematic new chapter for Destroyer, performing live with art-rock duo The Fiery Furnaces.

What is a “boogie”? In the common tongue, it’s a dance or an occasion to dance, a song or a shindig, an incitement to move, quickly, whether it’s on the floor or out of town, getting down or lying low. This being a Destroyer album and not the common tongue, the implications of a title like Dan’s Boogie are at once more alluring and dangerous. 'A boogie is a hustle, a scam that doesn’t quite work, the moves we make when we’re up against it,' explains Dan Bejar. 'I think of spy work, double agents, sleeping with one eye open, an eye on the exits. But I also think of petty street-level victories and losses and improv.' 

Joining the bill are The Fiery Furnaces - the boundary-pushing duo, whose kaleidoscopic, unpredictable genre-hopping sound brings its own heady magic to the night.
