Starfire presents modernform, Wild Heaven, Celestina Gravely and Frank Hurricane on Friday, April 11th! modernform is a female-fronted 5-piece post-punk/new wave-inspired band based in Austin, TX. Supported by angular guitars and mesmeric synthesizers, modernform’s songs are earworm-packed narratives about daily life's punishing mundanity and the search for its reprieve. Born out of pandemic boredom between cohabiting siblings and their partners, modernform’s first iteration was as a garage rock band called HOT///CAKES. In this form, the band released two EPs and flourished in the Austin scene, performing alongside many local legends, including Big Bill, TC Superstar, Glare and A Giant Dog. Over time, however, as members shifted around instruments and found their best fit in the lineup, most notably with vocalist Sofia Sanchez cementing her role as a front-woman with a stellar voice and captivating stage presence, the band realized they had become something else entirely: they became modernform. The band just released their first full length album, Sculpture Garden, with the help of producer Ernesto Grey (Font, Farmer’s Wife, Loveme) - available now on all streaming platforms!
