REVIVAL SEASON
SATURDAY / LIVE ROOM
Foreseen by oracles and foretold by angels, the coming together of rapper Brandon “BEZ” (B Easy) Evans and beatmaker/producer Jonah Swilley was, by their own admission, a divine appointment. Both halves musically and spiritually forged in the twin flames of Georgia׳s Pentecostal churches and grassroots hip-hop scene, Revival Season tell straight-shooting tales of our golden age — chop, cops, badass bitches, self-snitches; drug-dealing and revolution — chronicling and critiquing the culture over baselines and beats that kick squarely in the teeth with a platform boot.
The Atlanta duo make truly genre-busting music, expressed best across their acutely southern sounding rock-rap debut LP ‘Golden Age of Self Snitching’. “Strands of deconstructive but accessible forefathers like Beastie Boys and Gnarls Barkley can be detected in the commanding vitality of Revival Season’s brilliantly-named debut… a relentlessly vibrant statement of intent, possessing a colourful vigour that belongs to this exciting duo alone” (CLASH).
