Live session by Phantogram recorded for KEXP, the Seattle public radio station renowned for its live captures, and published in November 2024 (recorded on 29 August 2024). An American duo formed by Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter, Phantogram has crafted a dark, textured electro-pop since the late 2000s, blending synths, samples and trip-hop-leaning guitars. For this full performance, filmed with an expanded line-up including drums and additional keys, the band plays All A Mystery, Happy Again and Don’t Move, tracks tied to their album Memory of a Day (2024). The KEXP format, spare and sound-focused, highlights Barthel’s ethereal voice and the duo’s rhythmic architecture in a live session without an audience. For followers of electro-pop, dream pop and live radio sessions, this capture documents Phantogram at the start of a new album cycle, with the polished sonic rendering typical of KEXP. An ideal live session for hearing the band’s current colour away from the festival stage and closer to the studio.
