Melding indie rock and dream-pop influences, LA-based slowcore band Sprain pairs spacey, minimalist arrangements with emotionally compelling narratives. Their sonic subtlety reveals an understated and strikingly nuanced tonal palette, fluidly transitioning between moods and atmospheres with their use of unconventional compositional structure, harmonic color and instrumentation. Still pushing its 2018 self-titled debut, Sprain returns to town for a show at Japantown’s 3F Gallery—a cozy venue that showcases the work of local creatives and is an emerging hotspot on San Jose’s DIY scene.
