Known for their captivating live performances, DIIV seamlessly blends shoegaze’s ethereal textures with post-punk’s raw energy. Their shows are not just concerts, they’re incredible experiences that resonate deeply with audiences. Tickets are available now through Bugece and Biletix.
DIIV has carved out a unique space in the alternative music scene with their lush, layered guitar work and introspective lyrics. Their debut album, Oshin (2012), introduced listeners to their dreamy soundscapes, while subsequent releases like Is the Is Are (2016) and Deceiver (2019) showcased their evolving artistry. Their latest album, Frog in Boiling Water (2024), delves into darker themes, reflecting on modern societal challenges with haunting melodies and atmospheric depth.
Led by frontman Zachary Cole Smith, the band’s music often explores themes of alienation, addiction, and personal growth, creating a raw emotional undercurrent beneath their dreamy, reverb-drenched guitars. With each album, DIIV has pushed their sonic boundaries further earning a loyal following and critical acclaim for their ability to turn vulnerability into cathartic beauty.
