BELLOWS

BELLOWS, the bedroom recording project of songwriter and producer Oliver Kalb, brings its intimate yet explosive sound to Black Cat's Red Room on Sunday, July 5, 2026. The project, which began in upstate New York in late 2010 as a solo experiment, has evolved into a full-scale rock band that transforms Kalb's delicate home recordings into sweeping, loud, and intense live performances. The music is sensory and delicate, subtle and quiet, but erupts with frantic wobbling drums, large orchestral sections, and bursts of noise that push the conventions of pop and folk. Joining BELLOWS are openers ART SORORITY and PINKY LEMON, making for a full evening of adventurous indie rock.
