RÜFÜS DU SOL //
Shrine Expo Hall – Los Angeles
November 1st, 2018 //
RÜFÜS DU SOL came through LA a week ago for three sold-out nights at the Shrine Expo Hall. We have caught the Australian alt-dance trio before in both LA (read our review here) and San Francisco (read our review here) while on tour in support of their 2016 LP Bloom, and fresh off the release of their third album Solace last month, they came out in full force and opened with “Eyes” from their newest studio effort.
From there, it was a lovely wave of old and new with a surprising cover of Portishead’s “Glory Box” thrown right in the middle. RÜFÜS played all the favorites, from “Treat You Better” and “You Were Right” to “Underwater” and “Innerbloom” before breaking for a two-song encore. We couldn’t help but dance during the show as everyone who packed the room seemed to be in great spirits throughout the night.
