Wallpaper to hang in Portland
Somewhere between new jack, p-funk, dance-pop, r&b, hip-hop, bit-pop and p diddy (the ah uh & that’s right during a track) lives the music of Oakland’s Wallpaper. On evrytm we do it, the singer wants to do it again everytime he does it; it’s not an ode to an obsessive compulsive disorder but most likely an ode to his libido. He most definitely has a video blog.
Catch Wallpaper in Portland on Aug. 6th at the venerable (and fitting) venue, Dunes; as well as Rotture on Aug. 7th.
