The Cup will host an album launch at 7 p.m. for Bird of Paradise’s new album, “Temples.” The launch performance will be accompanied by artwork from the Glue & Scissors Society depicting the themes within the album.
Student Zach Hines, the man behind Bird of Paradise, is an electronic dance performer. “Temples” is a concept album that centers on club culture and how it’s almost a religious experience.
There’s two side of the album: songs that are from the perspectives of “believers” in the club culture and “doubters.”
Along with visual art, there will be literary works as well with a line-up of readers.
