Introduction:
Taiwanese indie darlings Shallow Levée are back with a summer treat for their fans, dropping two back-to-back singles, “Eventually 好不容易” and “I’ve Changed 我變了,” on July 23. The band also announced an innovative anti-A.I. conceptual concert in September, adding another layer of excitement to their musical journey.
About the Singles:
Shallow Levée’s fresh releases capture the essence of summer and the evolving sounds of the band. “I’ve Changed” is an adrenaline-pumping track filled with amplifiers and effect pedals, showcasing the band’s upbeat and dynamic side. Vocalist Yi-Ling reflects on societal pressures and the relentless march of time, creating an energetic anthem for change. In contrast, “Eventually” offers the band’s signature meandering tones, vividly depicting the bittersweet hardships and isolation that urban life brings.
Upcoming Concert:
The band’s creative spirit extends beyond their music into their live performances. They announced their upcoming Taiwan tour, “I’ve Changed,” featuring concerts in Taipei and Kaohsiung. This tour is not just a series of performances but a conceptual experience that delves into the implications of the A.I. age. The show transforms the band into a virtual “rental band” set in 2064, a future where music creation no longer requires human intervention. This narrative poses thought-provoking questions about the essence of rock n roll and human connection in an increasingly digital world.
