The following description was submitted by the event organizer.

The project of Wes Eisold, Cold Cave's collage of darkwave and synth-pop, ranges from desperate to hopeful, from harsh to romantic — often within the course of a single song. Eisold presented this contrast of light and dark most rawly on Cold Cave's early singles and 2009's full-length debut Love Comes Close, which paired his commanding baritone with gritty electronics on emotive songs that put the project at the forefront of the early 21st-century's darkwave revival. On 2011's Cherish the Light Years, Cold Cave went big, transforming their lo-fi intimacy into maximalist anthems, but as their music evolved, their D.I.Y. individuality remained. As they released singles (many of which were collected on 2014's Full Cold Moon) and EPs, including 2018's You & Me & Infinity and 2021's Fate in Seven Lessons EP, their commitment to brooding, danceable, heartfelt music was as strong as ever.
