This Wednesday, the Los Angeles-based indie rock duo Foxygen will bring their musically dense sound to the State Room. The group is comprised of Sam France and Jonathan Rado will be bringing their latest album, “Hang,” which featured a 40 piece orchestra symphony.
Foxygen was first conceived while its two members were still in high school. They drew from rock history’s illustrious psych era, creating an experimental sound unafraid to wear its influences on its sleeves. With their fifth studio release, Foxygen is clearly firing on all cylinders, creating an LP that is anything but unsure.
While it isn’t possible for the group to bring along the large symphonic arrangement they used in “Hang,” the duo will be joined on the road by a nine-piece band, which includes all the usual rock instrumentation plus a trumpet, saxophone and trombone.
