AZAR SWAN's first show was November 10th, 2012, which was followed by notable direct support slots with Prurient, White Lung, Cut Hands, King Dude, Tamaryn, and David J, and a BUST Magazine[1] showcase with JD Samson & MEN. The band premiered their debut single, "Amrika" on USA Today[2] on October 24th, 2012 and has subsequently released several digital singles. The single "In My Mouth" was released as one of the final releases from Pendu Sound Recordings, and was remixed by Drew McDowall.
Azar Swan released their debut LP, entitled Dance Before The War, on the independent label Handmade Birds in November of 2013. Pitchfork called the band's sound "prime industrial pop"[3] and said the album's title track was aggressive and accessible with a "bent for experimentation." The band's second LP, And Blow Us A Kiss, was released in October 2014 by Zoo Music, the record label owned and operated by Dee Dee Penny of Dum Dum Girls and Brandon Welchez of Crocodiles. They followed up the with a double A-side remix 12" called Variations on Handmade Birds with mixes by Vatican Shadow and Cut Hands. Variations is the first time both William Bennett and Dominick Fernow have been featured on the same release, both of whom are widely recognized as two of the most significant pioneering figures in power electronics and noise music. Lyrically the subject matter ranges from weather to war, and has taken on a more biographical and outward looking dimension. Atash has been vocal about her experience as the child of Afghan refugees, as well as her experience as a woman navigating complex cultural experiences and identities
They'll be joined by amazing Charlottesville dark-pop act SHIPS IN THE NIGHT, the return of the Goth Dance Party with DJ BEN SPEED and Charlanne from Fat Spirit's new project FREE GIRL!
