For episode 31 of 'The Read It Right Show', it was my pleasure to interview LA-based dark-pop duo 'Rainne'. Rainne's line-up comprises of singer-songwriter Annie Dingwall & saxophonist/Engineer Justin Klunk. Rainne won the coveted opening spot for the Hollywood Bowl 2019, winning against 14,000 other artists! They opened for biggies for Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, The Jonas Brothers and more. The global pandemic proved to be a tiny bump for their music career post the exhilarating Hollywood Bowl, as touring opportunities came to an abrupt halt. They have since improvised, finding other ways to reach audiences, make music remotely before they can start touring once again. Rainne's recent single 'Spiders' received both critical acclaim and fame. In this interview, the duo talks about their music career, performing in the Hollywood Bowl, and future plans! Enjoy watching/listening. _________________________________________________________________________ 📚 Get a copy of my brand new book: https://www.amazon.in/dp/1638062870 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/subh.dasgupta FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/subhabrata.dasgupta3 EMAIL: [email protected] _________________________________________________________________________ Content Tags: rainne dark pop, rainne hollywood bowl 2019, rainne annie dingwall, rainne justin klunk, annie dingwall, justin klunk, rainne, rainne interview, justin klunk interview, annie dingwall interview, RAINNE monster lyrics, Psycho killer rainne, read it right show, read it right interviews, subh dasgupta, subh dasgupta interviews, rainne spiders, rainne monster, rainne psycho killer, rainne nosebleeds, rainne LA, dark pop
