Poliça is a band that a lot of folks were looking forward to. GAYNGS’ Ryan Olson and singer Channy Casselle have garnered lots of name recognition, and with the dreamy soundscapes that we’ve come to expect from this band, it would be a natural curiosity to see if Poliça could pull it off in a live setting. Yes indeed, Casselle’s reverberated, wispy femininity vaulted across the room as a packed house danced along to the band’s minimal grooves. It was fun to see it up close. Check out a video below.
