Hypnum Goth Night

Inspired by music to walk through Charleston’s antique cemeteries to, Hypnum goth nights are a monthly event surrounding gothic music. Pull out your heaviest black eyeliner, tease that hair high and start to get real melancholic for the ’80s, whether you lived through it or not.

April’s show features The Veldt, an iconic band from Raleigh, NC who released their first record Afrodisiac in 1994 as pioneers in the shoegaze genre. They continue to innovate, mixing hip hop and soul with their dark, ethereal sound. Live on stage, The Veldt combines the dreamworld with our own reality in an experience impossible to forget. Plus, catch Nightsweat out of Columbia, SC with their energetic sounds about spell casting and the hardships of being a vampire!

floaty music for spooky people. ______________________________________

Nightsweat began as a solo project heavily influenced by the goth scene, melting together sinister bass, ethereal guitar, melancholic synth, and grieving vocals to create an atmosphere you can drift away into. Since it’s creation by Grant Carter, Nightsweat has evolved into a rapidly growing South Carolina based Goth Rock group featuring Grant Carter and Moth Del on vocals, Reid Mozley and Simion Cartis on guitars, Silas Martinez on bass, and Khamani on drums. Fusing together elements of post-punk, gothic rock, metal, folk, and darkwave, we hope to give you a variety of soundscapes to dance to in your own personal batcaves.
