Chicago indie-rock trio Horsegirl play Doornroosje in Nijmegen tonight, bringing the inventive world of second album Phonetics On and On to the Netherlands.
Nora Cheng, Penelope Lowenstein and Gigi Reece have roots in Chicago's DIY community but increasingly stretch well beyond straightforward indie rock.
Their current music mixes post-punk and minimalist pop with violin, synthesizers and even gamelan textures. That willingness to experiment without losing the primitive excitement of three friends making guitar music has made Horsegirl one of the more distinctive young American indie bands.
Tonight's show starts at 20:30.
