Deafheaven is an American band formed in San Francisco in 2010 by vocalist George Clarke and guitarist Kerry McCoy. Their music brings black metal together with shoegaze and post-rock textures, a sound closely associated with the 2013 album Sunbather and its opening track, “Dream House.” Later records include New Bermuda, Ordinary Corrupt Human Love and Infinite Granite. Deafheaven performed at Pitchfork Music Festival in 2014 and Coachella in 2016 as their touring moved through clubs, theatres and major festivals. In 2023, the band marked the tenth anniversary of Sunbather by playing the album in full. The anniversary run reached the Knockdown Center in New York before a hometown date at The Regency Ballroom in San Francisco.
