Southern Gothic Scions SONSOMBRE Release New Live Mini-Concert, Announce CD Pre-Order For ‘Revival’

With their new album, Revival, being zealously embraced by audiences around the world and earning some of the best reviews of their career, Virginia-based band Sonsombre have been itching to spread their gospel of classic Sisters Of Mercy/The Cure-style goth rock to the masses via live stage performances. But with the world continuing its long slog through a hellish nightmarescape, live performances just haven’t been in the cards. However, today the band has come to offer relief and release in the form of a gorgeously shot virtual mini-concert featuring standout tracks from both Revival as well as 2020’s One Thousand Graves.

Filmed by Jacob Johnson, the video showcases the band’s flair for the theatrical reverie of goth’s glory days, from the flowing black coat and distinctive wide-brimmed hat worn by frontman Brandon Pybus to the candle-lit stage set where the band performs. In addition to the regular cast of talented players supporting Pybus, the group is joined for this mini-concert by bassist Mike Louis of Chronic Twilight and Shadow Assembly.
