The Blow, Amenta Abioto

Brooklyn duo the Blow’s ethereal electro-pop is as much about the spaces in between the notes as the notes themselves. It’s not unusual to think of them as performance artists: A standard show involves vocalist Melissa Dyne onstage, often backgrounded by projected visual, and producer and keyboardist Khaela Maricich either off to the side or behind the audience. Most of the Blow’s songs weave airy, almost diaphanous vocals in and out of spare keyboard lines, but they’re playful and unpredictable, too, especially their takes on the Eagles’ “Peaceful Easy Feeling” and Whitney Houston’s “The Greatest Love of All” are wry, witty deconstructions of pop classics.
