HORORTERIA is a goth/post punk/darkwave/early industrial event with silent horror visuals. Live performance by Frenchy And The Punk and Ghost Cop from NYC! DJ sets by Tommy Grenas and Scott Harris from hororhaus.
Frenchy And The Punk (NYC) – 9pm
Gothic Folk Pop, Post-Punk & Alternative Cabaret
French-born vocalist Samantha Stephenson sings with a gothy heft and authority while former punk rock bassist turned guitarist, live looping master Scott Helland weaves his spidery electro/acoustic guitar melodies and cheeky garage noir riffage to perfectly complement Stephenson’s vocals.
"...[Zen Ghost] is chock full of passionate performances, transcendent lyrics, spiritual connection and skilled storytelling...Frenchy doesn’t shy away from theatrics: her infectious vivacity, commanding dance moves and bellowing voice weave into a mesmerizing combination. Helland anchors her with his skillful guitar work, a wonderful alchemy of complimentary energies." ~ Post-Punk.com

Ghost Cop (NYC) – 10pm
Post Punk Inflected, Cinematic Dark Wave
Time is omnidirectional and best viewed through slate tinted glass. A low rise concrete brutalist dwelling covered in graphical and colorful sigils. A robot siren call warning of unchecked technological advance. The continual low ambient drones in any city, in any country.
GHOST COP is Lucy Swope - vocals and Sean Dack – instruments.
