flipturn @ Gothic Theatre

Flipturn delivered an electrifying performance at Gothic Theater on March 15, 2024, leaving the audience in awe. The crowd turned out in force, and with The Brazen Youth opening up the evening.

The Brazen Youth

Somewhere in a 300-year-old farmhouse in rural Connecticut, circa 2011, two eighth-graders started a band. Dubbed “The Brazen Youth,” featuring Nick Lussier, Charlie Dahlke, and Micah Rubin.

Using their childhood farm as a home base for their music has allowed the folk-rock group to develop a timeless sound. While many up-and-comers ditch their hometowns for the big city, The Brazen Youth clings to the freedoms of rural New England. In lieu of university, the band fostered their own education by assembling a state-of-the-art studio on-site and honing their skills as musicians in relative solitude.

flipturn makes indie music for endless summers, sun-streaked days, and introspective nights. It’s a cinematic sound rooted not only in the Florida towns where the musicians first banded together as teenagers, but also in the anthemic live show that’s taken flipturn from coast to coast. In the time since their formation, flipturn has mushroomed to reaches far beyond the walls of the Fernandina Beach garage they first practiced in. Built up by Dillon Basse (lead vocals/rhythm guitar), Tristan Duncan (lead guitar), Madeline Jarman (bass), Mitch Fountain (synth), and Devon VonBalson (drums), the band is gearing up for the August 19 release of their debut album Shadowglow; a snapshot of a band caught halfway between youthful optimism and adult precision, with songs that target the head as well as the heart.

With over 60 million streams on Spotify alone, countless sold-out headline shows across the US, and tours with Mt. Joy, Rainbow Kitten Surprise and Wilderado, the band has more than proven their place in the indie scene. This year has seen flipturn join the prestigious lineups of Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Shaky Knees, Hangout, SunFest, and Levitate. flipturn recently signed with Dualtone Records to further amplify the release of their debut project, joining their legendary roster of the likes of The Lumineers, Chuck Berry and Shakey Graves.
