Local R&B/soul infused indie pop artist, Papi Shiitake recently released a brand new album, Wabi-Sabi, and to celebrate played a co-headline bill at Mercury Lounge with electro shoegaze band, Mevius. It was my first time seeing both bands and both brought a different sonic flavor to the night and plenty of great vibes. Papi Shiitake was full of good time grooves and played several of the tracks from the new album throughout the set, getting the crowd in the mood to dance. Mevius, the long running project of producer Daniel Kasshu, closed the evening with their sweeping electro gaze, singing songs in both English and Japanese and bringing the dark wave vibes. They also recently released a single, “Something Is Wrong.”
