As Diane Coffee, Shaun Fleming has fully embraced the role of the frontman, sporting the look and flamboyant style of so many great 70s rockstars. I was initially bummed to see him leave Foxygen years ago, but it’s clear that this was the right move. It’s been great to see him grow as an artist and get better with each and every release.
On November 8 he returned to New York for a headlining performance at Rough Trade NYC (we last saw him at 4Knots last year) which served as a way for him and his band to test out some new songs that will show up on his eventual new album. This includes both songs from his new 7″ PEEL (released via Polyvinyl Records), “Poor Man Dan” and “Get By.”
Fleming’s performance was fully theatrical and high energy from start to finish, it was amazing to see him work the crowd which fed him right back with equal parts energy. It’s safe to say that Diane Coffee will continue their growth with this next album, and a performance at Bowery Ballroom or Music Hall of Williamsburg isn’t too far off.
