The album was met with rapturous acclaim from both the dance-music establishment and the critical press, including a four-star review in Rolling Stone. Dear’s 2007 follow-up, Asa Breed, was a considerable departure from Heaven’s dance-floor excursions, incorporating the polyrhythms of Afrobeat, the irreverent pop sensibilities of Brian Eno, and the austere beauty of Krautrock. More rave reviews followed (Q and Mojo magazines), and Dear subsequently began touring with a live three-piece band, commanding the stage with a Bryan Ferry-like swagger and a gentleman’s grace. His fourth album, 2010’s Black City, was the culmination of years of hard work and experimentation, a darkly playful sound-world that envelops the listener like the arms of a malevolent lover. ___ For More Information: bangbangsandiego.com IG: @bangbangsd IG: @pyramideventsco
