atomi Matsuzaki plays bass and sings, Greg Saunier plays drums, John Dieterich and Ed Rodriguez play guitars. You? Well, you get your mind blown. Pop culture tastemaker Pitchfork called Deerhoof “the best band in the world.” From their humble beginnings as an obscure San Francisco noise act, they’ve become one of indie music’s most influential bands with their ecstatic and unruly take on pop. Playing with boundless, almost childlike energy, their thorny odd-time riffs and idiosyncratic melodic hooks will stick in your brain for the rest of your life, a life made infinitely better for having witnessed Deerhoof!
