The US dubstep-pop-punk artist has supported 100 Gecs, and on her second album brings to life a fictional Michigan town…
Underscores has a very gen-Z disregard for genre boundaries: her experimental sound fuses dubstep, left-field electronica, rock and much more. Born in San Francisco in 2000, April Harper Grey was influenced by artists such as Skrillex, and started putting music on SoundCloud aged 13. She released her first single two years later: Mild Season, an accomplished instrumental with broken beats and low drops, pulled together with a steady two-step rhythm.
Next she started layering vocals over her music, producing mesmerising, multifaceted soundscapes. Her 2021 debut album, Fishmonger, expanded into more affecting, personal territory and attracted the attention of famous fans such as Blink-182’s Travis Barker.
